.
. For most of the 1980s, 10 megabit per second (Mb/s) Ethernet offered sufficient bandwidth for
.
.
. most network applications. Eventually, the development of client/server applications and
.
.
. increasing numbers of network connections quickly consumed that bandwidth. Segmentation
.
.
. technologies were developed to divide networks into smaller segments by bridging and routing
.
.
. network traffic, temporarily relieving network congestion. However, segmentation created a need
.
. for more sophisticated ways to manage enterprise networks.
.
.
.
.
. Today, many organizations use Ethernet switching to segment all or part of their networks,
.
.
. providing a dedicated 10 Mb/s of bandwidth to each individual connection. In fact, Ethernet
.
.
. switching is currently the fastest growing segment of the networking market, averaging 341%
.
.
. growth per year. Although Ethernet switching improves the bandwidth crunch for most over-
.
.
. burdened networks, many newer applications, such as imaging, publishing, and interactive
.
.
. databases demand a more robust solution. Also, newer PCI-based computers, with their increased
.
.
. processing power, and multimedia applications, which add audio and video, challenge the once-
.
. adequate capabilities of standard 10 Mb/s switching technology.
.
.
.
.
. To meet growing bandwidth needs, Fast Ethernet has emerged as the network technology of
.
.
. choice. Just as the 80286 processor has evolved to the Pentium (and now the Pentium Pro)
.
.
. processor, 10 Mb/s Ethernet has evolved to Fast Ethernet.

.
.
.
. Many organizations consider Fast Ethernet the logical migration path from 10 Mb/s Ethernet.
.
.
. Here are a few reasons why Fast Ethernet wins over competing technologies in the high-speed
.
.
. networking marketplace:
.
.
.
.
. •
It’s Easy to Migrate - When you migrate to Fast Ethernet, you don’t need to spend time
.
.
.
learning about the technology. Because Fast Ethernet evolved from standard 10 Mb/s
.
.
Ethernet, most of the same rules apply. There also is no need to invest in new management
.
.
.
and diagnostic tools.
.
.
.
.
. •
It’s Ethernet Compatible - Fast Ethernet uses the same packets and protocols as 10 Mb/s
.
.
.
Ethernet. Therefore, there is no need learn or maintain a new protocol.
.
.
.
. • It’s Plug and Play - Fast Ethernet supports all major network wiring systems, making it a
.
.
.
“drop-in” enhancement for 10Base-T networks. In addition, the latest PC network controller
.
.
.
cards support both 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s modes. Today’s PCs are Fast Ethernet-ready at the
.
.
.
desktop.
.
.
.
.
. •
It’s Cost Effective - Compared to alternative high-speed networking technologies such as
.
.
ATM and FDDI, Fast Ethernet is a bargain. The cost of Fast Ethernet is almost as low as that
.
.
.
of 10 Mb/s Ethernet, yet it offers 10 times the performance. Other high-speed technologies
.
.
.
are at least twice the cost of Fast Ethernet.
.
.
.
.
. The Compaq Netelligent Fast Ethernet product line is the most comprehensive in the market
.
.
. today. Competitive offerings typically lack breadth of features, support for Fast Ethernet standards
.
. in the product line, or a fully integrated solution. Compaq Netelligent products, which include a
.
.
. mix of 10Base-T and 100Base-T devices, let you migrate to Fast Ethernet at your own speed.
