Terabit Ethernet - The internet of the future!

Scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) have come together at the Terabit Optical Ethernet Center (TOEC) to develop the technology necessary for a new generation of Ethernet a thousand times faster, and much more energy efficient, than today's most advanced networks. They are under development of technologies that will one day send the data that is transferred in all the networks in the world combined today through just a single fiber optic! The main limitation right now is the usage of a huge amount of power that is being dealt with. This is a natural progression that is required for cable intensive tasks that are coming up as technology marches ahead towards cloud computing! They are planning to develop and implement this speed by the year 2015 which isn't that far from today! Just to give you an idea of what a terabit is. All of you having the standard 1MB connection right now should know that 1TB would be a million times faster than that!
