Wavestar is a technology being developed by Lucent technologies that uses Wave division Multiplexing to transmit data over a fiber at 400Gbits/second. Check this out for more information. Granted, it's FOR SONET/SDH, which means that to do IP you have to do IP over ATM and then put the ATM signal over SONET, but it still blows 80Gbits out of the water.
