New record for data transmission through fibre optic cable beneath London streets: 450 terabits per second, or 450,000,000,000,000 bits per second.
That's enough for around 50 million movies to be streamed simultaneously.
That is a LOT of bits.

New fibre optic record allows 50,000,000 movies to be streamed at once
Improved hardware can send ten times as much data through existing fibre optic cables, potentially providing a way to massively upgrade the internet's infrastructure without the cost and inconvenience...
