10 Gigabit 1500MTU Performance
Following are highlights of the impressive performance achieved during traffic testing at
1500MTU:
• Receive traffic achieved 7.05 gigabits per second throughput with a service demand
of 4.3µs/KByte.
• A throughput of 6.9 gigabits per second was achieved with Transmit traffic; the
service demand was 2.7µs/KByte.
• Bi-directional traffic achieved 7.3 gigabits per second throughput with a service
demand of 3.1µs/KByte.
