Google is working on the internet with the speed of 10Gbit/s

Google wants within three years internet connections with a speed of 10 gigabits per second. That has the cfo of the company said at a conference. At this moment Google offers in Kansas City internet connections of 1Gbit/s.

Currently we are working on the higher throughput, so said Google cfo Patrick Pichette, according to USA Today on a technologieconferentie of investment bank Goldman Sachs. The higher speeds there would be about ten years, think Pichette. “But why would we not, within the three years available?” There is, according to Pichette ‘no need to wait’.

At this time, Google provides via its glasvezelprovider Google Fiber in Kansas City internet connections of 1Gbit/s. The service is now not yet in other cities available, but Google says that it is being extended to Austin, the capital city of Texas. Questions from the public or the service to other cities, said Pichette: “Stay tuned.” Earlier, he assured analysts that Google Fiber ‘not a hobby project” for the company.
