New data rates

The ever-evolving world of data rates! Here are some of the latest developments:

5G Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 20 Gbps (gigabits per second)
• Typical maximum: 1-5 Gbps
• Average real-world speeds: 100-500 Mbps (megabits per second)

6G Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 1 Tbps (terabit per second)
• Expected typical maximum: 100-500 Gbps
• Average real-world speeds: 10-50 Gbps

Wi-Fi 6E Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 9.6 Gbps
• Typical maximum: 3-6 Gbps
• Average real-world speeds: 1-3 Gbps

Wi-Fi 7 Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 30 Gbps
• Expected typical maximum: 10-20 Gbps
• Average real-world speeds: 5-10 Gbps

Satellite Internet Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 1 Gbps
• Typical maximum: 100-500 Mbps
• Average real-world speeds: 10-50 Mbps

Fiber-Optic Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 100 Gbps
• Typical maximum: 10-50 Gbps
• Average real-world speeds: 1-10 Gbps

Quantum Internet Data Rates:

• Theoretical maximum: 100 Tbps
• Expected typical maximum: 10-50 Tbps
• Average real-world speeds: 1-10 Tbps (note: quantum internet is still in its infancy)

Keep in mind that these are theoretical or expected maximums, and actual speeds may vary depending on various factors, such as network congestion, distance, and device capabilities.
