Good news!
"An international team of researchers have smashed the world record for fiber optic communications through commercial-grade fiber. By broadening fiber’s communication bandwidth, the team has produced data rates four times as fast as existing commercial systems—and 33 percent better than the previous world record. ...
“If you really push everything, if you filled in all the gaps, and you had every channel the highest quality you can arrange, then probably 600 [Tbps] is the absolute limit,” ..."

From the abstract:
"We combine 6 doped-fiber amplifier variants with lumped and distribute Raman-amplification to transmit in all of the low-loss transmission bands of silica fibers achieving an SMF record data-rate of 402.2 Tb/s (GMI)-378.9 Tb/s (Decoded) and 37.6 THz transmission bandwidth after 50 km."
