The pilot confirms that THz frequencies can provide ultra-high-capacity, low-latency networks, opening the door for next-generation applications like digital twins, terabit-class backhaul, holographic telepresence, and extended reality (XR). The UAE's aspirations to spearhead worldwide innovation in wireless technology are further highlighted by the showcase.
The first 6G Terahertz (THz) pilot in the Middle East has been successfully demonstrated by e& UAE and New York University (NYU) Abu Dhabi, with a record-breaking throughput of 145 gigabits per second (Gbps). The achievement is an important step in the UAE's endeavors to promote sustainable, immersive, and intelligent connectivity.
