NTT Plans 10-Tbit/s Network

Ray Le Maistre writes on Light Reading:

Tier 1 carriers the world over, take note: Japanese incumbent NTT Group plans to build a 10-Tbit/s optical backbone network to cope with the capacity demands of a growing FTTH and high-speed DSL customer base.

The carrier's growth in high-speed broadband connections is putting its current 1-Tbit/s backbone under strain, something that might attract attention from the likes of AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc.
