Gigabit Ethernet: Is the Time Right?

作者:Ralf Kaptur, Molex,Control Engineering,2009.01.05阅读 3201

  Engineers drove the development of gigabit Ethernet, but it’s use is not always practical. This article will help guide the decision-making process.

  Using gigabit Ethernet is a lot like having the fastest car in the world. Just as most current highways can’t accommodate a car that operates that fast, a substantial portion of installed Ethernet devices are incapable of leveraging gigabit Ethernet speed, which is 10 times

faster than the well-established fast Ethernet technology. As a resultCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, adoption of gigabit Ethernet has been slow, because some users do not see a clear reason to upgrade.
  howeverCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, this situation is beginning to change. Some Ethernet environments, such as large-scale newspaper printing plants, demand high bandwidth and users are converting to gigabit Ethernet. Alsowww.cechina.cn, as speed becomes an issue in other industrial application areas, more users are consideringwww.cechina.cn, and then converting toCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, gigabit Ethernet. And, as more applications are built requiring gigabit Ethernet, the industry will gradually transition and make gigabit Ethernet the established standard.
  Several challenges
  Today, howeverCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, there are several challenges to consider when implementing gigabit Ethernet:
  Interconnection problems. How do you choose the right equipment? What is the best way to connect gigabit Ethernet?
  Installation and reliability. Is gigabit Ethernet difficult to install and will it produce interference problems?
  High-bandwidth challenge. Many applications don’t currently require extra speed, making it difficult to justify the expense of converting to gigabit Ethernet. howeverCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, a growing number of critical applications can benefit from it.
  What is gigabit Ethernet?
  First developed from research by Xerox Corp. in the 1970s, Ethernet was implemented in the 1980s and has since grown to dominate the networking market. The advent of a fast Ethernet protocol increased data transmission speed from
