personnel. The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by
Gigabit Ethernet are essential to coping with the network bottlenecks
that frequently develop as computers and their busses get faster and
more users use applications that generate more traffic. Upgrading key
components, such as your backbone and servers to Gigabit Ethernet
can greatly improve network response times as well as significantly
speed up the traffic between your sub-networks. Gigabit Ethernet
enables fast optical fiber connections to support video conferencing,
complex imaging, and similar data-intensive applications. Likewise,
since data transfers occur 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet, servers
outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC's are able to perform 10 times the
number of operations in the same amount of time. In addition, the
phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet is the most cost-
effective method to take advantage of today and tomorrow's rapidly
improving switching and routing internetworking technologies.
Switching Technology
Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet technology is
in the field of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet
packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting
among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments. Switching
is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity
available to users on a local area network. A switch increases capacity
and decreases network loading by making it possible for a local area
network to be divided into different segments, which are not
competing with each other for network transmission capacity, and
therefore decreasing the load on each segment. The Switch acts as a
high-speed selective bridge between the individual segments. Traffic
that needs to go from one segment to another (from one port to
