HAMMOND, Ind., Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corridor launched one of the fastest, most secure fiber-optic networks in the Western Hemisphere on Oct. 24, 2023 with its first transmissions from the Chicago ORD 10 Data Center at 350 E. Cermak Rd. to a data center in Hammond, Indiana. At a speed 1,000 times faster than traditional networksi, Quantum Corridor's network will enable regional businesses and institutions to achieve breakthroughs in defense, financial modeling, biotech, cybersecurity, machine learning, research and more. This comes on the heels of the Biden-Harris administration's Oct. 23 designation of the Chicago MSA as a U.S. Regional Technology and Innovation Hub.

Key Points: 
  • By that time, the network will have the capacity to transmit nearly the entire current content load of the internet in a single transmission.
  • "There are applications we can't even fathom yet in quantum research and development, quantum computing, quantum networking and quantum commercialization ," Quantum Corridor CEO Tom Dakich said.
  • Quantum Corridor will make it possible to connect individual quantum research facilities and data centers to one another almost instantaneously.
  • Moreover, our collaboration paves the way for quantum research in real world environments, propelling Quantum Corridor's customers into a brighter and connected future."
