Researchers achieve transmission rates of 107 Gbits per second over a single fiber channel

In cooperation with Micram, the Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications (Heinrich-Hertz-Institut) and Eindhoven Technical University, Siemens has successfully tested the network of the future. This involved the 100% electrical processing of data rates of 107 Gbits per second and transmission over a 100 mile long fiber-optic route in the U.S. – the first time this has ever been done outside the laboratory.
