About Exabits per second

Exabit per second (Ebit/s) = 10¹⁸ bit/s (SI). Theoretical: Shannon limit for a single-mode fibre over 50 THz optical bandwidth ≈ 100 Pbit/s - still ~10,000× below 1 Ebit/s. Reaching 1 Ebit/s would require ≈1 million parallel fibres each at 1 Pbit/s. Global internet backbone installed capacity in 2024 ≈ 5-10 Pbit/s. 1 Ebit/s = 10¹⁸ bit/s = 125 PB/s.

About Pebibytes per second

Pebibyte per second (PiB/s) = 2⁵⁰ B/s ≈ 1.126 × 10¹⁵ B/s (IEC 80000-13). NTT's 2024 lab record (1.53 Pbit/s ≈ 191 TB/s ≈ 0.17 PiB/s) is the closest any physical link has come. An exascale cluster with 10,000 nodes × 10 TiB/s each ≈ 97.7 PiB/s aggregate - approaching this range in the aggregate, not a single link. From a physics standpoint, requires ≈ 10 million NVMe SSDs in parallel. 1 PiB/s = 2⁵⁰ B/s ≈ 8 Pibit/s.
