FCC APPROVES MUCH-NEEDED INCREASED CHINA-US BANDWIDTH
[SOURCE: C-Net|News.com, AUTHOR: Graham Webster]

[Commentary] As it stands, there's almost twice as much bandwidth  
across the Atlantic as there is across the Pacific. But with new U.S.  
FCC approval for the first ever China-U.S. fiber link, this is all  
about to change. The Trans-Pacific Express "will initially provide  
capacity of up to 1.28 terabits per second, and the system will have a  
design capacity of up to 5.12 Tbps to support future Internet growth  
and advanced applications such as video and e-commerce," writes  
ChinaTechNews.
