About Zettabits per second

Zettabit per second (Zbit/s) = 10²¹ bit/s (SI). Entirely theoretical. The entire global internet traffic in all of 2024 (≈40 Zbit) could be transferred in ≈40 seconds at 1 Zbit/s. The full electromagnetic spectrum (radio to gamma, ≈10³⁰ Hz bandwidth) at Shannon capacity still cannot sustain 1 Zbit/s with any known physical medium. 1 Zbit/s = 10²¹ bit/s = 125 EB/s.

About Exbibytes per second

Exbibyte per second (EiB/s) = 2⁶⁰ B/s ≈ 1.153 × 10¹⁸ B/s (IEC 80000-13). Total global data-centre write throughput in 2024 ≈ 1 EB/s ≈ 0.87 EiB/s in aggregate across all systems - but no single link approaches this. Shannon limit for a single-mode fibre full C-band ≈ 15 Tbit/s; reaching 1 EiB/s requires ≈ 500,000 such fibres. 1 EiB/s = 2⁶⁰ B/s ≈ 8 Eibit/s.
