About Petabits

A petabit (Pbit) = 10¹⁵ bits (SI). Major internet exchange points (DE-CIX, AMS-IX) handle peak traffic of multi-Tbit/s, accumulating Pbits per hour. Bell Labs (2022) achieved 1.02 Pbit/s over a single fibre pair. CERN LHC distributes ≈ 720 Pbit/year through the WLCG computing grid. 100 wavelengths at 800 Gbit/s each = 80 Tbit/s per fibre; ≈13 such fibres = 1 Pbit/s. 1 Pbit = 10¹⁵ bits = 125 TB.

About Yobibits

A yobibit (Yibit) = 2⁸⁰ bits ≈ 1.21 × 10²⁴ bits (IEC 80000-13, 2008). An 80-bit physical address space would provide 2⁸⁰ bytes = 128 YiB of byte-addressable memory - physically preposterous by any current forecast. World manufactured storage in 2023 ≈ 10 ZB ≈ 0.00828 Yibit. A 267-qubit quantum register has a state space of 2²⁶⁷ ≈ 1 Yibit in bits. IEC 2022 added 'ronbi' (Ri, 2⁹⁰) and 'quetti' (Qi, 2¹⁰⁰) for theoretical future use. 1 Yibit = 2⁸⁰ bits = 128 ZiB.
