A single computer chip transmitted 1.84 petabits of data per second over a fiber optic cable, which is enough bandwidth to download 230 million photos in that time and more traffic than the Internet’s entire backbone network.

Asbjorn Arvad Jorgensen of the Technical University of Denmark in Copenhagen and his colleagues used a photonic chip – a technology that allows optical components to be built into computer chips – to divide a data stream into thousands of separate channels and transmit them all at the same time over 7.9 channels Kilometre.
