Gigabit Ethernet
Key advantages of Gigabit Ethernet:1 GBps data transfer to support faster imagingExtension of today’s Ethernet to meet needs for increased bandwidth applicationsStraight forward managementAffordable hardwareMinimal staff trainingFamiliar technologyIT departments will see:
Increased network performance levels, including traffic localization and high-speed cross segment movement Increased network scalability — it will be easier to add and manage more users and "hungrier" applications Decreased overall costs over time
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of the highly successful 10 Mbps (10BASE-T) Ethernet and 100 Mbps (100BASE-T) Fast Ethernet standards for network connectivity.
