Gigabit Ethernet enables fast optical fiber connections to
support video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar data-
intensive applications. Likewise, since data transfers occur 10
times faster than Fast Ethernet, servers outfitted with Gigabit
Ethernet NIC’s are able to perform 10 times the number of
operations in the same amount of time.
In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit
Ethernet is the most cost-effective method to take advantage of
today and tomorrow’s rapidly improving switching and routing
internetworking technologies. And with expected advances in
the coming years in silicon technology and digital signal
processing that will enable Gigabit Ethernet to eventually
operate over unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling, outfitting
your network with a powerful 1000-Mbps-capable
backbone/server connection creates a flexible foundation for
the next generation of network technology products.
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity
of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high
performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN
technologies have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth
and improve client/server response times. Among them,
100BASE-T (Fast Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth
evolution from the current 10BASE-T technology. The non-
