  "A research group at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), which
   was the first to break the one-terabit barrier in 2009, has today
   managed to squeeze 43 terabits per second over a single optical
   fiber with just one laser transmitter. In a more user-friendly unit,
   43Tbps is equivalent to a transfer rate of around 5.4 terabytes per
   second -- or 5,375 gigabytes to be exact. Yes, if you had your hands
   on DTU's new fiber-optic network, you could transfer the entire
   contents of your 1TB hard drive in a fifth of a second -- or, to put
   it another way, a 1GB DVD rip in 0.2 milliseconds."
