Gigabit & Fast Ethernet Networks by LASER Beam

Growth of Ethernet: Today, approximately 90% of business data starts and ends on Ethernet LANs. Gigabit Ethernet has emerged as the corporate standard, because it is inexpensive, widely understood, and backwards compatible to existing Ethernet networks. Despite the recent telecom downturn, enterprises worldwide are still spending roughly $82 billion a year on WAN and Internet access services. Corporate and campus LANs are seeing substantial infrastructure growth as local bandwidth requirements create building-to-building bottlenecks.
