Ethernet Physical Layer

Ethernet 102: 802.3: The Physical Layer of Ethernet

Ethernet 102: The Physical Layer of Ethernet is a high-level presentation on the basics of the Ethernet physical layer. This is one of the first webinars in the University of Ethernet program and investigates the physical layer from the cabling to the MAC layer. This presentation covers Ethernet nomenclature such as 10GBASE-LRM and signal encodings such as 10GBASE-R. From Fast Ethernet to 100 Gigabit Ethernet, Ethernet 102 shows real world examples of copper and physical interfaces.

Ethernet 103: Introduction to 25 Gb/s Ethernet

Webinar attendees will receive an introduction to and in-depth insight into 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE), currently in development. Panelists will address and low-cost, high-speed interconnects; current progress in standardization of 25GbE; potential markets; deployment architectures; and more.

Ethernet 104: Introduction to 2.5G/5G BASE-T Ethernet

The Ethernet 104: Introduction to 2.5G/5G BASE-T Ethernet webinar took place on May 21st at 10am PT  and provided attendees with an in-depth introduction to Next Generation Enterprise Access (NGEA) 2.5G/5G BASE-T Ethernet. Presented by John D’Ambrosia, chairman, Ethernet Alliance, and chief Ethernet evangelist, Dell; Dave Chalupsky, chair, Ethernet Alliance BASE-T Subcommittee, network hardware architect, Intel, and chair, IEEE P802.3bz 2.5G/5G BASE-T Task Force; and Peter Jones, principal engineer, Cisco Systems; the webinar provided an overview of 2.5G/5G BASE-T technologies, market drivers, and standardization efforts.
