Verizon FiOS

Verizon is testing its newest optical technology that hits 10Gbps speeds.

Monday, December 14, 2015

Verizon could offer its users speed connectivity from 10Gbps up to 80Gbps in the near future. The new system utilizes an OLT which is the optical line terminal and is capable of generating 4 wavelengths, each one is able to transmit 10Gbps down and 2.5Gbps up. Upcoming 4K video streaming would need faster speeds. As such, Verizon is implementing the necessary steps for the upcoming streams. The date service is available is unknown and no word on when the service will come online. In the future, Verizon can easily provide businesses and consumers with Internet speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second and higher. The technology upgrade can be used to support multi-gigabit-speed Internet access service for FiOS customers as the consumers demand such services. Growing the system capacity will take all but adding a few new colors of light onto the existing fiber, each having the capacity 10Gbps. The adoption of 4K video content will create a demand for higher speeds.
