In late 2008, Verizon completed another field trial of 100 Gigabits per second, or 100G, optical networking. This trial successfully transmitted 100G traffic over a distance of more than 1,040 kilometers, setting a new distance record. Glenn Wellbrock, director of optical transport, network architecture and design for Verizon, discusses the significance of this 100G trial and highlights the networking capacity and quality benefits large-business and government customers will realize upon deployment of 100G capabilities in the Verizon network.
