China launches world’s fastest internet with 1.2 terabit per second link, can transmit 150 4K movies a second::China is claiming that they now have the world’s fastest internet. Their new network transmits 1.2 terabits per second. That’s over 1200 gigabits, per second. At this speed, the network will be able to send 150 4K movies in less than a second. Furthermore, it can send all of Netflix’s global content

More like you could download the entire Netflix library if you could ping it
This new network will only allow you to Xi Jinping it.
Underrated comment
The storage capacity this needs…
I wanna see that infrastructure! I need to see it in person!
China is claiming…
Aaaand I no longer have any confidence in the validity of this claim.
1.2 terabits is actually a doable amount

In People’s Republic of China, claim makes you
Edit: or…claim gets paid for you!
Slamming into the great firewall faster than ever?
This is moat likely a core/main/back bone switch that feeds many smaller switches. Its not outside the norm, we’re seeing 400gb and 800gb switches that are easily able to push that much bandwidth out a single port. 1.2tb or 1.6tb switches are the next logical step. You’ll only find these switches in massive datacenters or for server clusters like for AI or high performance computing
Thank you for dropping some savory knowledge!
It has to be. There’s nothing in anyone’s house that can use anything remotely approaching that much bandwidth.
Don’t worry, bandwidth will still be shit because of all the spy funnels and filters traffic is run through
Now I want a fiber optic keyboard cleaning brush
it’s probably just an internal link
So, internal Internet?
Isn’t that just called intranet?

no more like a link between 2 nodes that belong to the same AS
Plug that shit into my veins
China’s economy is set up for these headlines, government bodies are spending hard on infrastructure and sometimes it’s good (roads, bridges, dams, most of them have a long term value to a region) and sometimes it’s overbuilt, like the small/medium city with two airports.
They want the implication to be “China has the best internet, thus China is the best place to go for my internet company” or something like that. But they are intentionally overbuilding for a future state that may never come, just like the small/medium city with two airports.
It’s great to invest in infrastructure, but other things count too, and there are diminishing returns at some level of development.
Sorry that you’re getting down voted for facts
Let me read this article from my made in China iPhone.
