10 Gigabit Ethernet • 10-Gigabit Ethernet • From LAN to WAN to MAN • 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10-GBE), ratified in June 2002, is a logical extension of previous Ethernet versions. 10-GBE was designed to make the transition from LANs to Wide Area N...

Category 6 and 6a • Category 6 and 6a Cables • Category 6 • The next level in the cabling hierarchy is Category 6 (CAT6) (ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1), which was ratified by the TIA/EIA in June 2002. CAT6 provides higher performance than CAT5e and ...

Alien Crosstalk • Alien Crosstalk • Alien Crosstalk (ANEXT) is a critical and unique measurement in 10-GbE systems. Crosstalk, used in 10/100/1000BASE-T systems, measures the mixing of signals between wire pairs within a cable. Alien Crosstalk...

SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) • SDH (Synchron Digital Hierarchy) läuft, wie der Name schon impliziert, synchron. Es gibt nur eine Taktgeschwindigkeit innerhalb des Netzwerks, so dass keine Pufferzone benötigt wird. Als Folge davon kann a...

Fast and Giga Ethernet: 100 and 1000-Mbps • Fast and Giga Ethernet: 100 and 1000-Mbps • In computer networking, Fast Ethernet is a collective term for a number of Ethernet standards that carry traffic at the nominal rate of 100-Mbps, against t...

Multimode vs. Singlemode Fibre • Multimode vs. Singlemode Fibre • Multimode fibre cable has a large-diameter core and therefore has multiple modes of propagation—that is, several wavelengths of light are used in the fibre core. It’s primarily ...

50-µm fibre optic cable • Fibre optic cable. • The background • As today’s networks expand, the demand for more bandwidth and greater distances increases. Gigabit Ethernet and the emerging 10-Gigabit Ethernet are becoming the applications of c...

Category 3 and 4 • Performance of Cat 3 and Cat 4 cables • Category 3 • Category 3 is the performance level for voice and data transmission up to 16 MHz or 10 Mbps, such as 4-Mbps Token Ring and 10BASE-T. • Category 4 • Categroy 4 is the perfo...

Standard and ThinNet Ethernet • Thick and ThinNet Ethernet: 10-Mbps • As a result of research done at Xerox Corporation in the early 1970s, Ethernet has evolved into the most widely implemented physical and Data link layer protocol today. Most...

SpaceGAIN gewinkelte Kabel und Patchpanels • Platzsparende Lösungen für high-density Infrastrukturen • Bei einer kürzlich durchgeführten Umfrage* unter IT-Verantwortlichen haben 85% gesagt, daß sie die Dichte vergrößern um: • den Platz im Schr...
