About Zebibits per second

Zebibit per second (Zibit/s) = 2⁷⁰ bit/s ≈ 1.181 × 10²¹ bit/s (IEC 80000-13). A 1 Zibit/s link would transmit the entire 2024 annual global internet traffic (≈ 40 Zbit) in ≈ 40 seconds. Single caesium atom oscillates at ≈ 9.2 GHz; reaching 1 Zibit/s by atomic oscillation would require ≈ 10¹¹ atomic channels. Theoretical unit only. 1 Zibit/s = 2⁷⁰ bit/s ≈ 128 EiB/s.

About Petabytes per second

Petabyte per second (PB/s) = 10¹⁵ B/s (SI). Theoretical for single systems. NTT 2024 fibre lab record = 191 TB/s ≈ 0.19 PB/s. Exascale HPC with 10,000 nodes × 10 TB/s memory bandwidth each = 100,000 TB/s = 100 PB/s in aggregate - plausible as a cluster total but not a single link. Global all-data-centre combined write throughput ≈ 1-10 PB/s. 1 PB/s = 10¹⁵ B/s = 8 Pbit/s.
