At ten times faster than Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet is the next evolutionary step in high-speed networks. Now a formally approved IEEE standard, Gigabit Ethernet offers a natural upgrade path for current Ethernet installations, making it an attractive choice. The Gigabit Ethernet marketplace is exploding with products, major companies, start-ups, & established vendors. Gigabit Ethernet combines in-depth technical knowledge with the ability to see the 'big picture'-Gigabit Ethernet as a specific technology & its relationship to other technologies. Seifert, one of the original Ethernet developers & a well-known consultant, describes the essential networking foundations & provides a balanced technical overview. Examining in detail the complex issues involved in applying Gigabit Ethernet, this practical implementation guide concentrates on the real behavior & characteristics of Ethernet systems. This book will help readers plan for & implement Gigabit Ethernet networks. * Clarifies one of the most prominent networking debates today: Which is better-Gigabit Ethernet or ATM? * Features a useful guide to the IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet standard itself * Addresses a growing market as Gigabit Ethernet builds on existing Ethernet networks-the largest group of networks in use No library descriptions found. |
