Researchers from Nokia and GFiber Labs (the experimental arm of Google Fiber) successfully achieved 41.89 Gbps download speeds on a live Google Fiber network. This marks the first time that Nokia’s 50G PON (passive optical network) technology has been used on a Google-owned network, and its one of the only examples of live 50 Gig networking in the United States.
I thought most of the google fiber rollouts where constantly stuck in legal battles with the telecoms. I know here in my state, att basically blocked it constantly by claiming they didn’t have the resources to move their wires to another spot on the public poles.
