Lasers are channeled through fiber optic lines.

Lasers are not always visible.]]>May 21st 2010 8:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/

tho' upon further thought, i suppose "quantum" is also in the nature of lasers, what with the whole photon thing]]>May 21st 2010 7:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 7:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/So is lightpeak. There aren't even chipsets available to OEMs to actually build lightpeak end devices or host adapters. I can see it now, there will be like 10 different competing optical standards in the next few years for high bandwidth connectivity...I just really hope intel doesn't win...they are douches that always screw over their customers.]]>May 21st 2010 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/
But, yeah... 100gbps= 12GB a sec! 1080p full blu-ray in a sec! now cloud don't seem so silly... just greedy :)]]>May 21st 2010 8:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/Well, you see, on other side of optical fiber there's an optical sensor (photodiode), which is trying very hard to recognize and distinguish those 0s and 1s. Yet in a possible situation when it needs to distinguish not 2 types of incoming signal, but as much as 256 - it will be almost impossible to do - there will be too much interference from signal noise. In long-distance networks to overcome this, you'll be forced to used additional amplifiers and regenerators (which are pretty expensive).]]>May 21st 2010 9:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/In addition to that, lots of times other "frequencies" (wavelengths) are used to carry entirely different signals. Sort of like radio, where you can "tune in" to different wavelengths and get completely different data streams]]>May 21st 2010 9:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 8:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 8:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 8:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/May 21st 2010 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/21/fujitsus-quantum-dot-laser-fires-data-at-25gbps-not-just-for-s/
