Optical Fibre now can handle more data


With the amount of internet connected devices increasing day-by-day, the capacity to handle them must also increase. Not to forget that the means for faster internet will also increase. Researchers have come up with a solution for this.
Engineers from University of California have worked on this regard and have come up with a new research that would  increase fiber optic capacity nearly 20 times by successfully sending a signal through 7456 miles cable without the need of any electrical generators.
This news has come handy at a time when there was a panic on knowing that the standard optical fibre cables can't handle the growing capacity of internet connected devices.
With this, people can expect a faster internet speed once these cables are used. Although, it would buy some time to implement these fibres into practical environment.
