In a landmark achievement for regional and global connectivity, e UAE and New York University NYU Abu Dhabi have jointly demonstrated the first 6G Terahertz THz pilot in the Middle East, achieving record-breaking throughput of 145 Gbps. This pioneering trial marks a significant step in the UAE's journey to shape the future of intelligent, immersive, and sustainable connectivity.
The pilot validates the potential of THz frequencies to deliver ultra-high-capacity, ultra-low-latency links, enabling transformative use cases such as holographic telepresence, extended reality XR, terabit-class backhaul, and digital twins. By advancing research at the frontier of 6G spectrum, this initiative cements the UAE's position as a global leader in technology innovation.
"Achieving 145 Gbps milestone is a breakthrough moment for the industry and for the UAE. This achievement demonstrates our ability to pioneer at the edge of technology, exploring the transformative potential of 6G to reimagine how people, businesses, and cities connect. Our collaboration with NYU Abu Dhabi underscores the critical role of academia-industry partnerships in shaping the future of connectivity."
