Gigabit Ethernet Basics
10 - 40 Gb Gigabit Ethernet is primarily used for data linking within MAN, ASP, and ISP's.
Gig-E (Gigabit Ethernet) is very convenient in the sense that it is LAN compatible, faster than frame relay, uses switch only, has high capacity, and is easily upgraded.
Gigabit Ethernet has many different spelled and pronounced names: Gig-E, GigE, GE, and, Gb. Gigabit Ethernet is a service dedicated to high speed data transfer and Internet connectivity. It is offered in both switched GE or shared GE access. Gigabit Ethernet is Ethernet running at 1 billion bits per second over optic fiber or copper.
A typical Ethernet connection runs at (10 Gb) 10 million bits per second. Gigabit Ethernets minimum frame size is 512 bytes compared to normal Ethernets frame size of only 64 bytes. The Gigabit Ethernets larger frames allow more data to be transmitted through a switch at one time allowing faster and more reliable data transfer. 40 Gb ethernet is growing in popularity as businesses continue to grow.
A Gigabit Ethernet switch uses less resources on switching due to a larger frame ability. The larger frame sizes also allows redundancy through better collision alerting in the event of congestion over the Ethernet path connection.
Gigabit Ethernet is growing in availability and demand due to the expansion of fiber lines without wavelength division multiplexing being laid across the continent at an outstanding growth rate.
The national average of laid dark fiber in the metropolitan areas has steadily increased over the years, making Gigabit Ethernet a much more affordable and available optical commodity. With LAN compatible Gig-E, equipment costs are reduced significantly when compared to ATM and SONET
A Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure, compared to SONET and ATM, is more easily upgraded without the additional purchases of new software and hardware.
