5 times farther than conventional fibre-optic cables, significantly reducing latency and extending connectivity range from 60 kilometers (37 miles) up to 90 kilometers (56 miles). Innovative fibre-optic technology expands geographic possibilities, enhances speed, and unlocks sustainable energy sources for global data infrastructure. As data centres face increasing pressure to support AI-driven data processing, the demand for electric power has emerged as a significant. This revolution is profoundly impacting the physical realities of data centers, pushing the boundaries of how much power, cooling and interconnect bandwidth is required. However, glass imposes a fundamental physical limitation because light travels through it approximately 30 percent slower than through air.
