China has made a significant leap in internet technology by launching the fastest internet network worldwide, with an impressive speed of 1.2 terabits per second.
This development marks a substantial advancement over traditional internet speeds.
The creation of this ultra-fast internet network is the result of a collaboration between Tsinghua University, China Mobile, Huawei Technologies, and Cernet Corporation.
Their joint efforts have culminated in a network that eclipses the speed of most existing major internet routes.
This high-speed network spans over 3,000 kilometers, connecting major cities such as Beijing, Wuhan, and Guangzhou.
This connectivity is a crucial part of China’s Future Internet Technology Infrastructure and the China Education and Research Network (Cernet), an initiative which has spanned over a decade.
Since its inception in July and its official launch recently, the network has not only passed all operational tests but has also proven to be very consistent and reliable.
According to Huawei Technologies Vice President Wang Lei, the network can transfer data equivalent to 150 high-definition movies in just one second.
In comparison, most global Internet backbone networks operate at 100 gigabits per second, with the US’s Internet2 recently upgraded to 400 gigabits per second.
Wu Jianping, the project leader, states that this breakthrough not only signifies a successful operation but also positions China at the forefront of developing even faster internet technologies.
Xu Mingwei from Tsinghua University likens the network to a high-speed train track, offering efficiency and manageability far surpassing traditional methods.
China’s newly launched internet network boasts an unprecedented speed of 1.2 terabits per second, surpassing most existing internet speeds by a significant margin.
The network is a result of a collaborative effort between Tsinghua University, China Mobile, Huawei Technologies, and Cernet Corporation, combining their expertise to achieve this technological feat.
The network spans over 3,000 kilometers, providing connectivity between major Chinese cities including Beijing, Wuhan, and Guangzhou, as part of China’s Future Internet Technology Infrastructure.
