3 3 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet3 What is Gigabit Ethernet? 0 An extension to 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 0 Offering 1000 megabits per second data rate 0 An emerging IEEE 802.3z Ethernet standard 0 The first draft of the standard was produced by IEEE in January 1997 0 The final standard was approved in June 1998 0 Can be implemented in either hubs (repeaters) or switches 0 The hub is a shared medium technology (medium access control such as CSMA/CD is needed) and the switch is a dedicated medium technology (no medium access controls are needed) 0 Allows half-duplex (HDX) and full-duplex (FDX) operation at speeds of 1000 Mbps (2000 Mbps effective throughput for FDX) 0 Expected to be deployed initially as a backbone network as well as for high speed server connections

4 4 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet4 What is Gigabit Ethernet? (concluded) 0 Evolutionary high speed network using existing standards and proven technology 0 Compatible with existing Ethernet -Unchanged Ethernet MAC Layer (CSMA/CD) protocol -Unchanged Ethernet frame format and frame size (both maximum and minimum) 0 Support existing star-wired topology 0 Support existing Ethernet applications

5 5 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet5 Why Gigabit Ethernet? 0 Faster and more power computers continues to grow 0 The need for gigabit LAN backbone to interconnect faster LANs such as Fast Ethernet 0 Growing number of complex, time critical, and bandwidth intensive applications such large image file transfers 0 Capability to support new applications and data types such as voice and video 0 Easy migration to higher performance levels (from wide installation base of Ethernet/Fast Ethernet) without disruption (compare to ATM or other technologies) 0 Low cost of ownership including both purchasing cost and support cost 0 Internetworking and network design flexibility

7 7 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet7 Physical Layer Technology 0 The Physical Layer technology for Gigabit Ethernet is mainly based on the ANSI X3T11 standards for Fibre Channel 0 Since Fibre Channel technology has been in use for for several years, the IEEE 802.3z standards committee decided to adopt this technology to reduce development time and risk for the Gigabit Ethernet standard 0 Four physical media types are defined for Gigabit Ethernet -Single mode fiber -Multimode fiber -Shielded twisted pair cable (STP) -Unshielded twisted pair (UTP-5) cable 0 Two Physical Layer standards -1000BASE-X (IEEE 802.3z) -1000BASE-T (IEEE 802.3ab)

8 8 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet8 Physical Layer Technology (continued) 0 1000BASE-X is based on Fibre Channel Physical Layer standard -Three media types included in 1000BASE-X =1000BASE-SX: Short wavelength (850 nm) laser on multimode fiber =1000BASE-LX: Long wavelength (1300 nm) laser on single mode and multimode fiber =1000BASE-CX: Short haul copper “twinax” STP -1000BASE-SX is targeted at lowest cost multimode fiber runs in horizontal and shorter backbone applications -1000BASE-LX is targeted at longer multimode building fiber backbones and single mode campus backbones -1000BASE-CX is used for interconnection of equipment within a short distance (25 m) in a computer room -Based on Fibre channel’s 8B/10B encoding (25% overhead) -1.25 Gbps wire speed to achieve 1 Gbps data rate

10 10 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet10 Physical Layer Technology (continued) 0 1000BASE-T Standard -A standard (IEEE 802.3ab) for Gigabit Ethernet over 4 pairs of Category 5 UTP for distance up to 100 meters -Based on the specifications of ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A (1995) -No need to replace existing Category 5 cabling (conforming to 1995 ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A standards) to use 1000BASE-T -Any link supporting 100BASE-TX should support 1000BASE-T -Installed cabling should be tested for return loss (echo), caused by impedance mismatches (typically the fault of of poor connectors) and far-end crosstalk (signal leakage from adjoining wire pairs at the far end of the transmitter creates electrical noise) -Uses a symbol rate of 125 Mbaud -uses a more sophisticated 4-dimensional, 5-level Pulse Amplitude Modulation (4D-PAM5) coding scheme

11 11 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet11 Physical Layer Technology (concluded) -4-levels to achieve 2 bits per symbol and the fifth level for Trellis Froward Error Correction coding -Supports FDX on each pair of Category 5 UTP

13 13 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet13 Performance Issues 0 Limitations of shared medium (HDX) Gigabit Ethernet -Without modification to the Ethernet MAC layer protocol, the maximum network diameter/size of Gigabit Ethernet is limited to about 20 m -To keep the maximum network diameter/size of Gigabit Ethernet to 200 m (same as Fast Ethernet), the minimum CSMA/CD carrier time and the Ethernet slot time have been extended to 512 bytes (should be 640 bytes) -Packets smaller than 512 bytes have an extra carrier extension -If all traffic consisting of 64-byte frames, the effective throughput would drop to 120 Mbps -The Gigabit Ethernet throughput would be between 300 - 400 Mbps for average frame size on most Ethernet in the 200- 500- byte range

14 14 6/14/2015 11:20 CS575Gigabit Ethernet14 Performance Issues (continued) 0 Gigabit Ethernet switches must be used to extend network size 0 Not appropriate for seamless integration of LAN, MAN, and WAN 0 Doesn’t deliver the QoS guarantees needed by multimedia applications 0 Working on standards to provide Quality of Service (QoS) and Class of Service (CoS) to IP traffic 0 Use 802.1Q/p to provide priority information for frames in the network 0 Use 802.3x for flow control 0 QoS support by switch vendors such as Foundry Networks -Policy-based traffic classification on =Type of Service (ToS) =IP precedence mapping =Layer 2/3/4 defined traffic flow
