The IEEE task force weighing whether and how to expand the size of Ethernet frames met again last week and made a couple of key decisions. Earlier this year, the study group looking at the possibility ...

The 40G/100G Ethernet standard has been ratified, the first specification to simultaneously utilize two new Ethernet speeds. The IEEE 802.3ba standard was ratified last Thursday, according to the IEEE ...

O.k. a question regarding jumbo frames (or for that matter regular ethernet frame sizes) and how they relate to DSL frame sizes. I know jumbo frames have an MTU > 9000 and regular ethernet is about ...

The paper describes how, with a SOPC (System on a Programmable Chip) architecture embedded with a 32-Bit NIOS-II, a Layer 2 Ethernet switch can be implemented in a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) ...

Ethernet is the major local-area network (LAN) in which we connect our computers, routers, and printers. It has taken an important role in the industrial engineering world, having become the ...

Time-triggered QoS enhancements for Ethernet satisfy requirements of backplane and backbone applications in aerospace, automotive, energy production and industrial ...

With the adoption of the Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard, latency will increase. This can compromise the use of EEE switches in low latency applications, such as High Performance Computing.
