Abstract

Network technology is always moving forward and with the recent availability of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE) hardware we have a standard technology that can compete in terms of speed with core or backbone Internet connections.This technology can help deliver high-speed data to the end-user but will systems that are currently used with Gigabit Ethernet deliver with 10GE?We investigate the performance of 10 Gigabit Ethernet network interface cards in modern server quality PC systems.We report on the latency, jitter and achievable throughput and comment on the performance of transport protocols at this higher speed.
