The recent growth of Voice over Internet Protocol popularity and podcasting alone proves audio distribution over IP-enabled networks such as Ethernet will grow beyond streaming radio.

There are two approaches to delivering Ethernet over copper: Encapsulate Ethernet traffic into either ATM cells or High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) frames. In the first approach ( RFC 2684 ...

While many enterprises have yet to buy a single fiber-based 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch port, the IEEE is hard at work on a copper-based standard for the next-generation Ethernet technology. And ...

The increased spectral use of the copper wiring by subsequent Ethernet standards. The primary measurement that underlies these differences is called the spectral bandwidth, and is defined in Hertz.

We should have seen it coming. Once we got 1-Gbit Ethernet over copper, it was obvious someone would want to do 10 Gbits/s over copper also, even though we have a perfectly good ...

Hatteras Networks Inc., one originator of “midband Ethernet” to replace legacy T1 and T3 services, will come to the conference with the industry's first embedded time-domain reflectometer, allowing ...

While the existing Ethernet spec for copper cabling, 802.ak, or 10Gbase-CX4, will run up to only 15 meters, 10Gbase-T will run up to 55 meters over Category 6 untwisted-pair cable and up to 100 ...

Power over Ethernet is a useful technology for simplifying cabling, reducing cost, and placing your network endpoint devices wherever you want.

Anyone offer you a penny for your thoughts? Save it for the copper wire. Networking products that deliver Gigabit Ethernet over copper took the spotlight at last week's Networld+Interop show in ...

With copper prices soaring and showing little sign of stabilizing, network cabling companies have been forced to adjust cable prices accordingly. Copper prices have tripled over the past four ...

Prototype Category 8 RJ-45 connectors and copper twisted pair cables were used in a proof-of-concept demonstration of the technology to an IEEE study group.

The key technology that is going to change the broadband/telephony environment is ‘ethernet over copper’. This technology enables up to 40meg bandwidth on a twisted copper pair (not as great ...
