An international team of researchers led by USC engineers have developed a system of transmitting up to 2.56 terabits of data per second - using twisted beams of light.
  
As broadband cable only supports up to about 30 megabits per second, the twisted-light system is actually capable of transmitting more than 85,000 times more data per second.
