Hollow-Core Fiber Could Redefine Data Center Geography | Business and Finance News
Description
Data center developers are poised to spend $4 trillion by 2030, but face mounting hurdles from politics and power grids. Enter Relativity Networks, which just raised $22 million and secured a $40 million deal from a major hyperscaler, all while pioneering hollow-core fiber—a breakthrough tech that transmits data 30% faster by letting light race through a vacuum inside the cable. This tiny speed boost could redefine where AI infrastructure can be built, letting centers sprawl farther apart without performance loss. CEO Jason Eisenholz envisions this as the “third era of AI,” shifting focus from compute and networking to optimizing geography itself—making massive, synchronized campus deployments not just possible, but smarter.
