مستخلص: This case study describes Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) and its role in supporting R&D programs at NASA Glenn. These programs require an advanced high-speed network capable of transporting multimedia traffic, including real-time visualization, high-resolution graphics, and scientific data. GigE is a 1 Megabits per second (Gbps) extension to 10 and 100 Mbps Ethernet. The IEEE 802.3z and 802.3ab standards define the MAC layer and 1000BASE-X and 1000BASE-T physical layer specifications for GigE. GigE switches and buffered distributors (BDs) support IEEE 802.3x flow control. The case study also compares GigE with ATM in terms of quality of service, data rate, throughput, scalability, interoperability, network management, and cost of ownership. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
