Intel has now reached a new milestone in the speed of data transfer - 50-Gbps.

To put this speed in context this is how Wired described it

The 50-Gbps speed is enough to download an HD movie from iTunes, or up to 100 hours of digital music, in less than a second.

The system does away with heat generating, speed limiting copper wiring and uses silicon photonics which is basically lasers and light modulation.
