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 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.
