Relativity Networks raises $22M for faster hollow-core fiber tech
The startup's vacuum-based fiber transmits data 30% faster than conventional cables, targeting AI data center deployments.
What to know
- Relativity Networks raised $22 million to commercialize hollow-core fiber, which transmits data 30% faster than conventional fiber by routing light through a vacuum rather than glass.
- The company secured a $40 million order from a major hyperscaler, signaling market demand for the technology.
- The microsecond-level speed gains are particularly valuable for AI workloads distributed across multiple data center campuses.
“Relativity Networks has raised 22M USD in funding to deploy hollow-core fibre in data centres, a technology that transmits data 30% faster than conventional fibre by routing light through a vacuum chamber rather than glass.”
