Light micrograph of a fibre optics cable Scientists have shown off a system they say could “substantially” improve the data capacity of fibre optic networks. The team says the growth in bandwidth-hungry applications such as YouTube and iPlayer will eventually stretch the limits of long-distance fibre links. Their improved system would eliminate most of the interference caused by other signals and amplifiers, in an analogue of “auto-tune” software. Developers say the device can plug directly into existing networks.
