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 Zettabytes per second

Zettabyte per second (ZB/s) = 10²¹ B/s (SI). Total global internet traffic in 2024 ≈ 5 ZB/year; at 1 ZB/s the entire year's internet traffic would transfer in 5 seconds. LHC raw detector data ≈ 1 PB/s - six orders of magnitude below 1 ZB/s. Purely cosmological in scale. 1 ZB/s = 10²¹ B/s = 8 Zbit/s.
