Appendix A: About Gigabit Ethernet

Gigabit Ethernet

Gigabit Ethernet runs at speeds of 1Gbps (Gigabit per second), ten times faster than 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, but it still integrates seamlessly with 100Mbps Fast Ethernet hardware. Users can connect Gigabit Ethernet hardware with either fiber optic cabling or copper Category 5e cabling, with fiber optics more suited for network backbones. As the Gigabit standard gradually integrates into existing networks, current computer applications will enjoy faster access time for network data, hardware, and Internet connections.
