Gigabit Ethernet Technology
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support
for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, and management
objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical
throughput over 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and a one
hundred-fold increase over 10Mbps Ethernet. Since it is
compatible with all 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet
environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a
straightforward upgrade without wasting a company’s
existing investment in hardware, software, and trained
