    Researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics (FIAF) and the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT) have managed to transmit data over the air at a speed of 40 Gbps – fast enough to send a full DVD in under a second.


    The experimental device that has set a new world record for wireless connectivity broadcasts at ultra-high frequency of 240 GHz, and has been tested over a distance of one kilometre (0.62 miles).
    According to researchers, the atmosphere shows especially low attenuation in this frequency range, and the technology has already been tested with distances over one kilometre.

    Not much relevance except as short backhaul Microwave links. The problem in Ireland on Microwave links is the annual licence cost from Comreg is a punitive tax not the speed.
