Two recent studies suggest that fiber-optic cables laid directly on the moon's surface could potentially detect moonquakes, offering a simpler way to gather seismic data to support future human and ...

MOSAIC ditches lasers for cheap MicroLEDs and medical imaging fiber, cuts cabling energy by up to 50%, and already fits in a ...

The technology, called MOSAIC, replaces lasers with inexpensive MicroLEDs and uses a fundamentally different architecture to transmit data inside datacenters.

Already in its second generation, the Thunderbolt I/O protocol has been around for three years, but only recently did manufacturers begin production of optical cables to deliver the tentpole feature ...

Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation has developed the world’s highest-density multi-fiber optical fiber cable for outdoor optical fiber networks. NTT Access Network Service Systems Laboratories ...

The ubiquitous USB 3.0 connector is advancing to light-speed and longer-distance data transfers thanks to optical cables from Corning that started shipping on Tuesday. Corning’s first USB 3.Optical ...

Optical cables for Thunderbolt ports that enable faster data transfers over longer distances on computers such as Apple’s Macintosh will be available later this year, Intel said Monday. Thunderbolt, ...

A group of technology companies has applied for permits to build a hub near the beach in Carlsbad that would connect the ...

Scientists have successfully transmitted quantum internet signals over commercial fiber-optic cables, bringing us closer to a new era.

The new optical cables could be up to 10 times as long as the original Thunderbolt cables, and that's not the only difference. Topher, an avid Mac user for the past 15 years, has been a contributing ...
