Only limited by the speed of light,

What exactly do you think the normal ip data is limited by on the same optical cable?

I thought we were talking about quantum entaglement and spooky action at a distance, which is famously not limited by the speed of light?

Am I missing something obvious?

Yes, quantum entanglement occurs without the speed of light, but we famously cannot interpret information from it faster than the speed of light - it isn't FTL communication.
