Orange completes successful trial of Fujitsu 1FINITY optical transport solution
Fujitsu 1FINITY T900 lab trial validates reduced cost per bit for more sustainable, high-performance, high-capacity networking KAWASAKI, Japan, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ -- Fujitsu Limited announced that Orange S.A. successfully completed a lab evaluation of the Fujitsu 1FINITY™ T900 Series Transponder. The evaluation demonstrated outstanding performance at 800Gbps wavelengths over long distances with low power consumption, enabling affordable and sustainable optical transport. Network operators face the challenge of transporting more traffic at a lower cost per bit due to increasing data demands and rising costs. This is further complicated by high energy costs and environmental sustainability goals, pushing network operators to reduce power consumption for a lower carbon footprint. Orange's evaluation at its Innovation Labs in France revealed that the 1FINITY T900 transponder maintained low and constant power consumption across all transmission rates, achieving a transport distance of at least 1600 km at 800Gbps with power consumption below 150 Watts. This demonstrates the potential for even greater long-haul transport distance and capacity without increased power consumption. This energy efficiency is enabled by Fujitsu's unique closed-loop liquid cooling technology. Combined with its ability to support up to 1.2Tbps per wavelength, the liquid-cooled transponder offers increased spectral efficiency for optimum capacity and reach, resulting in a lower cost per bit per km, reduced operating costs, and improved sustainability. Houmed Ibrahim, Optical Transport Innovation leader at Orange, emphasized the company's commitment to deploying high-performance networks with minimal power consumption. Hideki Matsui, head of Photonics System Business Unit at Fujitsu, stated that the 1FINITY T900 solution empowers extreme scale and reliable terabit performance while consuming up to 70% less power at 800Gbps wavelengths. Fujitsu is establishing a new company, 1FINITY Inc., on July 1 to consolidate its network business products and operations. This aims to accelerate the delivery of high-quality optical and wireless solutions globally, contributing to a more sustainable future.

Pornhub threatens to pull out of France
The adult content platform has accused Paris of compromising user privacy Pornhub, one of the world's largest adult content platforms, has threatened to cease operations in France in protest against stringent age verification regulations, which it claims could leave users' private data vulnerable to bad actors, hacks, and leaks. The platform's parent company, Aylo - which also operates popular adult sites like RedTube and YouPorn - has expressed concerns over the feasibility of complying with the French requirements by the June 7 deadline. Starting Wednesday, French users will be greeted by a message denouncing the age verification demands, aiming to explain directly "how dangerous, how potentially privacy-infringing, and how ineffective the French law is," a company representative told AFP. The French regulatory body, Arcom, mandated that adult websites implement robust age verification systems to prevent minors from accessing explicit content under a law passed in 2023. Non-compliance could result in significant fines or blocking of the website within France. The legislation envisions the use of third-party verification technologies that would confirm a user's age without collecting personal data. However, Aylo has argued that the current technological solutions either infringe on user privacy or are not sufficiently reliable. The company insists it supports age verification - but calls for more secure, device-level solutions. "Google, Apple, and Microsoft all have the capability built into their operating systems to verify the age of the user at the operating system or device level," said Solomon Friedman, vice president for compliance at Canadian private equity firm Ethical Capital Partners, which owns Aylo. "I understand that those three entities are large and powerful, but that is not an excuse for France to do what they have done." The French government maintains that these measures are essential for protecting minors online. Culture Minister Aurore Berge accused Pornhub, YouPorn, and RedTube of refusing to "comply with our legal framework" and deciding to leave "for the better." "There will be less violent, degrading, and humiliating content accessible to minors in France. Bye," Berge wrote on X on Tuesday. France's Digital Minister Clara Chappaz added that "requiring pornographic sites to verify the age of their users isn't stigmatizing adults, but rather protecting our children." Last month, President Emmanuel Macron confirmed his support for mandatory age verification not only for adult websites but also for teenagers registering on social media platforms, stating that online networks have contributed to suffering and mental health issues among young people. France, Spain, and Greece are also advocating for mandatory age verification on platforms such as Meta's Facebook and Elon Musk's X, according to Bloomberg. The three nations reportedly argue that the "lack of proper and widespread age-verification mechanisms" hampers enforcement of age limits. They aim to leverage the EU's economic power - with its 450 million consumers - to compel tech companies into implementing robust verification systems. (
