Gigabit and 10G networks are quickly gaining acceptance, and not just in data centers but business offices as well. Another trend that will push the envelope of the current 100Mbps Fast Ethernet network is the gigabit 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard. The market is already flooded with 1.2Gbps Wi-Fi gear, and given the popularity of Wi-Fi connectivity, the 11ac standard is expected to see quick adoption in the business space as well. At that that point, a 100Mbps Ethernet network will be a bottle neck.
Today, prices for gigabit Ethernet gear is almost indistinguishable from 100Mbps, and 10G gear is also becoming increasing affordable. So help you customers get more out of their investment today and prepare them for tomorrow’s growth.
