    Hollow-Core Fiber Breakthrough: 0.091 dB/km Attenuation and 45% Latency Gain

    Microsoft’s move into hollow‑core optical fiber signals a potential inflection point for high‑speed networking: lab and limited field results show an air‑core design with measured attenuation as low as 0.091 dB/km at 1,550 nm, a substantially lower loss than the practical floor of modern silica...
