Coming to a postcode near you in 70-80 years.

Impressive, but isn�t it ultimately doing what datacentres do? With an on-site user facility?

Wonderful redundancy in all those boxes, internal to the site and remotely. Feeding a single short twin fibre-optic cable?

Were you there? It sounds like your sort of thing. How about this comment, at about 22:40 or 22:50 BST:-

You're wrong. TB/s doesn't stand for terabits, it stands for tit-butts per second. Back in 2000 it was decided that since 95% of all bandwidth on the internet was porn, that the most accurate measurement of data transfer would be tit-butts.

This is all pretty standard stuff.

Perhaps more interesting is what the sponsor, Comhem, actually offer to their existing customers

None of this is new just a carrier grade network design. I used to design things like this and even helped to trial the OSS the configured the routers, switches etc automatically.

OK the ones I did were only on 10/40Gbit optics but it was 10 years ago. but this is just bigger pipes.

You could buy a setup like this from any large carrier if you had the cash, most data centres are connected like this with two physical ducts to the building leading to two carrier sites etc.
