Researchers from Nokia and GFiber Labs (the experimental arm of Google Fiber) successfully achieved 41.89 Gbps download speeds on a live Google Fiber network. This marks the first time that Nokia’s 50G PON (passive optical network) technology has been used on a Google-owned network, and its one of the only examples of live 50 Gig networking in the United States.
I’m shocked that Google Fiber hasn’t yet been added to the list of services they’ve shut down because they got bored of them.
Maybe that’s still to come.
I thought most of the google fiber rollouts where constantly stuck in legal battles with the telecoms. I know here in my state, att basically blocked it constantly by claiming they didn’t have the resources to move their wires to another spot on the public poles.
Well, you have to see, but Google Fiber is a division of Alphabet. Although the closest thing to that was in 2016 when it halted its expansion plans.
You can collect a lot of data about someone, and then send them a lot of ads at 50Gbps.
