Google has ambitions to increase the speed of its superfast Internet service Google Fiber, with the ultimate goal of increasing the current 1Gbps speed by 1,000 times to 1Tbps
.
Recently, Google's fiber department released a job advertisement, hoping to find optoelectronic engineers who can challenge innovative Internet technology to "continuously increase network bandwidth in a cost-saving way to more than 1Gbps per user"
.
Just how fast 1Tbps will be the next big goal, but it is still a long way
from achieving it.
If the network speed reaches 1Tbps, it will take only 7 milliseconds to download a movie, which is unimaginable
.
At present, Google Fiber is only available in a few US cities, but 1Gbps speed is not the fastest, and several companies have released 10Gbps network services
.
The benefit of fiber optic cables is that they are relatively future-proof, for example, London researchers achieved speeds of 1.
4Tbps on existing
fibers.
Much of the current research on 1Tbps fiber seems to focus on technologies that utilize the Internet backbone that transmits data between data centers and continents
.
While Google's job ads don't explicitly mention 1Tbps speeds, they specifically mention a focus on "per-user" data traffic beyond 1Gbps, suggesting that Google isn't just thinking about backhaul connections up to 1Gbps
