Technically Speaking 100-Mbps Ethernet. Power Tray (LHC018A-AC-R2) filled with Miniature Media Converters. 100BASE-T: an overview. 100BASE-T, also known as Fast Ethernet, is a high-speed version of the 10BASE-T Ethernet standard. 10BASE-T data and 100BASE-T data are essentially the same: The only difference is that to attain higher data throughput, the 100BASE-T standard reduces the latency period between data bits. This increases data throughput from 10 to 100 Mbps.
Technically Speaking (continued from page 3) And with increased network density, data throughput suffers greatly. Some earlier solutions to lagging network throughput looked promising. For example, using full-duplex switches on a 10-Mbps network—known as “switched Ethernet”—effectively increased data rates to 20 Mbps. However, many high-bandwidth applications and large data files have since outgrown switched Ethernet. The solution.
Technically Speaking 1000-Mbps Ethernet. The Gigabit Ethernet standard boasts a speed of 1000 Mbps, 100 times faster than 10BASE-T. And it works as promised— boasting speed, stability, true quality of service (QOS), and compatibility with older Ethernet standards. Gigabit Ethernet is generally used to provide the high bandwidth needed for high-speed network backbones and servers. The Gigabit Ethernet standard was approved in June 1998. A mere one year later, the IEEE 802.
Technically Speaking Power Tray (LHC018A-AC-R2) filled with Miniature Media Converters. (continued from page 5) Gigabit Ethernet makes it possible to blast packets through even the most congested links. Gigabit Ethernet can be used to build enormous switched networks and move traffic through them at blinding speed. It’s a perfect choice for delay-sensitive applications such as voice and video.
