But the ability for half-duplex operation was a requirment in the spec, for reasons not a whole lot of people can fathom...I have yet to see anyone actually USING half-duplex GigE, however. FastE, sure (I have a dumb FastE hub sitting right here on my desk), but never GigE. -C On Thu, May 10, 2001 at 11:09:57AM -0400, John Fraizer wrote:

I don't think the 10GEA has standarized the draft. It is slated for mid 2002. But some vendors might have non-standard implementations, but I am not aware of it.
Most of the stuff available at the 10Gbps rate is OC-192 and has nothing to do with 10Gbps Ethernet...
Anyone know any good articles on 10GB ethernet? I am specifically intrested if they have removed some of the legacy requirements that hamper gigabit ethernet (such as a default MTU of 1500, half-duplex, etc.)
Half-duplex? The last time I checked, my GigE equipment didn't default to half-duplex.
