"NEC and Corning Inc. develop a multi-core fiber optic cable that can transfer a record-breaking petabit of data per second."
How about sending 500HD movies in just a span of a second? Yes its possible in near future. NEC and Corning Inc, announces that it successfully transmitted 1.050Petabits in a second. This will enable high data transfer capabilities along with cost effectiveness and met the demands of ever growing traffic.
