nterop does Ethernet many ways Demos focus on 10G, talks push 40G and more | www.eetimes.com
Service providers do not want to increase their OPEX and CAPEX while they want to support 40G and 100G infrastructure. There is big hype about 10G-base T products however it is not a viable long term solution because, 1. Cannot be scaled beyond 10G 2. Power consumption is high Both the factors are going to eventually be barriers to the growth of 10G base T products.
