  1. Weekend Reading! Check out his TechAptitude post on the upcoming Quantum Internet.

    One of the first tangible outcomes from Quantum Technologies will likey be a highly -secure global communications backbone, a “quantum internet”, that could connect data centers, financial institutions, government facilities, with unbreakable encryption and quantum level security. techaptitude.substack.com/p/qu #Quantum #QuantumInternet #QuantumTechnologies #Communications #Internet #Security #Encryption #QuantumRepeater #Photons #FibreOptics

  3. NIST and University of Colorado researchers demonstrated over 99% effectiveness in transmitting photons over a 2 km link of standard optical fiber. The team successfully separated the signals needed for fiber stabilization, trillions of photons per second, from the single photons carrying quantum information, overcoming a significant technical hurdle.

    Net-net the experiment illustrated strong separation between the classical light signals and the quantum signals transversing fiber optic cables dramatically reducing sources of error and noise for optic based quantum systems.

  5. Canadian start up Xanadu (founded in 2016) went IPO via SPAC (Mar 27) on the Nasdaq and TSX stock exchanges under the ticker symbol "XNDU".

    Xanadu is building photonics-based quantum computing systems and claims its approach can leverage existing modern chip manufacturing facilities and optical components like fibre optics. xanadu.ai/press/xanadu-becomes #Quantum #QuantumComputing #Xanadu #TSX #NASDAQ #IPO #Photonics #SPAC #Optics #FibreOptics

  7. 🔆 What's faster than light speed? Well, it's still light speed, but in terms of an optical fibre, UK researchers say transmitting the light through a hollow core fibre would be able to speed up data transmissions by 45%, and let it travel further without needing a little boost

  8. QUESTION: the Drone War in Ukraine suggests that fibre-optic tech is now dirt cheap; so where can I get some to run a 50m link around my garden?

    They appear to be running a full video and control feed over (approximately) a piece of fishing monofilament, so I’m presuming the control tech is no longer a matter of $5,000 GBICs?

  11. Construction kicks off in Larsen Bay for GCI’s Aleutians Fiber Project
    [the_ad id="30587"]

    Crews will be deploying a new fiber-to-the-premises network in the remote Aleutian community

    ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Construction is underway in Larsen Bay for GCI’s Aleutians Fiber Project! With surveys complete and permits, materials and crews...

  12. European telcos and US tech giants are having a row over 5G and fibre broadband. The telcos say they need more money and big tech should help pay for internet access, since they make money off it.

    Big tech says charging both consumers and content providers is against net neutrality. However some analysts think it's just two very powerful parties fighting about money and that the telcos are lying. So who's right?

  13. Massive spike in #WiFi interfaces in area. The number of them has doubled, and from a terribly high base.

    Can we do anything to divert these #electroMagneticFrequencies? Magnets?

    We may be willing to jam signals — just to tell the council/neighbours to start using a damned #ethernetCable.
