GE is going to build a 100G network as part of an industry test bed to support its industry Internet initiative that the company says will support Internet of Things (IoT) communications across connected control systems, large infrastructure products and manufacturing plants. By building out a 100G network, GE will be able to support industry machine commands that could have data sets with 1,000 times a standard movie file size a consumer would download over their home broadband connection. These 100G-capable lines will allow industries to immediately connect and control machines located thousands of miles away.
