According to NBC News, Verizon has successfully tested new technology that would allow it to deliver Internet broadband speeds up to 10 times faster than the speed of Google Fiber.
At 10 gigabits per second, Verizon's proposed next-generation passive optical network (NG-PON2), which it tested between its office in Framingham, Mass., and a house three miles away, would be nearly 1,000 times faster than the average broadband connection in the U.S of 11.4 Mbps.
Eventually, the company said, it would be possible to boost speeds as high as 40 to 80 gigabits per second.
