AMS-IX members connect to the platform with 1, 10, 100 Gbit/s Ethernet connections, or using multiple gigabit or 10 gigabit aggregated ports, utilizing the 802.3ad standard.
VSP 4850GTS, a 1RU Layer 2/Layer 3 Switch that is equipped with 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (including two common ports offering SFP connectivity) plus 2 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports that feature SFP+ physical connectivity.
In the process of considering how best to provide universal connectivity, powerline networking was apparently not considered although it reaches very nearly "100% of civic addresses" in Nova Scotia and has up to a thousand times higher maximum throughput (up to half a gigabit per second using G.hn or IEEE 1901 on Atheros 7400 or Gigle Networks 541 chips).
The ITU-T G.hn standard, which provides a way to create a high-speed (up to 1 Gigabit/s) local area network using existing home wiring (power lines, phone lines and coaxial cables), uses CSMA/CA as a channel access method for flows that don't require guaranteed quality of service, specifically the CSMA/CARP variant.
The CCNI connects to the Rensselaer Troy campus and the NYSERNet optical research infrastructure, enabling gigabit/second connections to the Internet and Internet2, National LambdaRail (NLR), and most of the research networks in the world through a peering point in Manhattan.
In Sweden, household broadband is mainly available through cable (in speeds of 128 kbit/s to 1 Gbit/s), ADSL (256 kbit/s to 30 Mbit/s) and VDSL (256 kbit/s to 60 Mbit/s), but in many places also through copper Ethernet LAN networked via fibre MANs connecting buildings.
He was one of five developers who created the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter, in support of 10GEA's effort to standardize 10-gigabit Ethernet.
Xilinx's IP cores include IP for simple functions (BCD encoders, counters, etc.), for domain specific cores (digital signal processing, FFT and FIR cores) to complex systems (multi-gigabit networking cores, the MicroBlaze soft microprocessor and the compact Picoblaze microcontroller).
