High-speed fiber optic cables are the backbone of modern telecommunications infrastructure does not deliver the data directly to a computer belonging to the consumer. Affairs that last mile is usually submitted to other intermediaries, such as copper cable or wireless signal.
Well, how about "light" of the fiber optic cable can be made directly reach the various devices that the final destination of data, both computers, smart TV, or so forth?
That's the idea behind an experiment conducted by Oxford University and University College, where "light" as the medium of instruction of data in a fiber optic cable is taken, amplified, and then transmitted wirelessly to a computer that acts like a Wi-Fi network.
From the experimental results, based on information compiled by Kompas Tekno of IEEE Spectrum, Monday (02/16/2015), a system called "LiFi" managed to transfer data at speeds up to 100 Gbps, many times faster than standard Wi-Fi the fastest current (802.11ac) are stuck at a rate of about 7 Gbps.
