All gigabit
Ethernet is convenient and simple characteristics, making it the preferred technology of the LAN. The application began in the early 1980s, due to its simple construction, use flexibility, now gradually applied, experienced 10 megabits, 100 megabytes Ethernet technology, and today 10 Gigabit Ethernet has partially entered the practical application. In front of the "singing protagonist" in the market, it is Gigabit Ethernet. In addition to greatly expanding the network bandwidth, Gigabit Ethernet also joined QoS quality management, overcoming the weaknesses of Ethernet. Its appearance has enabled many ideas to be implemented, such as using it as a data transmission in a fast Ethernet. In Gigabit Ethernet, the local area network does not only have data transmission, and video and voice can be transmitted in real time. Therefore, SMU's product manager Cai Hui, which will be "revolutionary application" and not. Currently, the price of Gigabit Ethernet products is constantly being lowered, especially domestic brand new products, and cost-effective closer to small and medium-sized business needs. For example, the total investment in Beijing Century Hongda is a 500,000-yuan Tongzhou Education Commission to establish a local area network project, which is consistent with the owner's investment level, which uses three large-scale Gigabit Switches. In addition, the successive joining of mainstream vendors provides more options for users. The newly entered the Chinese market US SMU network system company has developed history. In the 1990s, SMU first implemented virtual subnet technology in hardware form, thereby simplifying the construction of community networks; Committed to developing Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet technology. The company's MS5526A Gigabit Ethernet switch was originally positioned in the enterprise working group level, and now is widely used as floor switches. Another latest phenomenon is that this year, in several major computer citys in Zhongguancun, the general network product distributor's Gigabit switch is sold, and the past "0" growth is the current monthly basic shipments in "2 to 3". . Gigabit applications are slowly moving towards popularization. As an example of the domestic brand, the BS3000, BS5000, BS6000, BS8000 series is a Gigabit switch launched by Purple Biwei, in different industries such as education, government, telecommunications. In 2003, these real Gigabit Ethernet port sales exceeded 10,000 million, the main sales of Gigabit ports exceed 40 million yuan. As a result, Wang Hui, product manager of the company's marketing center product, has a reason for 2003, a year of Gigabit Ethernet tables.
Gigabit is a trend or ideas
Wang Hui went to two points for the cause of Gigabit application to the trend: (1) The promotion of universal applications. Since Gigabit Ethernet has brought better performance and higher productivity for general corporate environment, in the past few months, the development of desktop Gigabit Ethernet has exceeded special fields such as professional and high-tech companies, and expanded. Ordinary enterprises; (b) the elimination of bottlenecks. New products launched by major network technology and workstation providers, not only less price, and eliminate many problems that may lead to too long the Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure response time. The above conclusions represent the views of most industry insiders. IDC research shows that the average price of fixed-configured Gigabit Ethernet switch port has declined from $ 800 per port in 1998, decreased to 100 US dollars per port in 2003; the average price of Gigabit NIC also has from 1999 The year is $ 500, falling to less than $ 50 today. The emergence of a new high-density switch can purchase media and equipment for gigabit transmission at a lower price. With the 802.3P specification, all hosts can be connected to all hosts through Ethernet, fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet. With the 10/100/1000 port of the high-density LAN switch, the network administrator can transplant the higher terminal site when the business needs and budget allows. After the desktop connection is changed to a Gigabit Ethernet, the desktop will read data from the line with the same rate of the server to send data to eliminate the distal bottleneck. SMU has been investigated and grasped by China's market, and it has been conclusively: China's enterprise-level users grow up, pulling the application of Gigabit Ethernet. Extend the Gigabit Ethernet to the table facing the company is very attractive. It is foreseen that companies will continue to deploy high-bandwidth applications and a more functional server and desktop system. To meet the rapid growth of bandwidth requirements, deploy a new desktop with 10 / 100,000Mbps copper wires is the most economical way. Also, with the improvement and function of the network architecture, desktop PCs and applications will become more advanced. A large number of applications bring more traffic. Users will use multicast or video on demand daily, with large attachments, file transformers, on-demand backups, recovery, CRM / ERP, and Java tools, plus working groups, departments, floors, and wiring rooms The number of users, such as such a huge traffic extends the Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop, becoming inevitable. This is why the SMU finally decided to enter the domestic main push Gigabit Ethernet equipment provider. The company asserts that Gigabit Ethernet technology has been applied to the floor, and the desktop office should refer to the day. However, "theoretical needs" and "actual application" are separated by a "hurrican", achieving all gigabit needs time. In the backbone network, the core layer, the aggregation layer, the Gigabit Ethernet technology is applied at the time, and it has already become a standard in the domestic industry market. However, in the access layer usually uses Gigabit Ethernet to the floor, 100M Ethernet to the workspace architecture form, currently in the floors generally use 100 Mbps-based exchange technology. Take my country 's Education Network as an Example. The university network is currently the most abundant network in my country. Videos, multimedia, distance education, etc., requires hardware devices with high bandwidth, rich in function and supports all kinds of applications including above, and is very large for Gigabit Ethernet technology. But the reality is not the case.
Beijing Century Hongda Culture Technology Co., Ltd. is a professional Si for the education industry. When he communicated with Liu Yueming with the company deputy manager, he summed up from the company in recent years: At present, universities have significantly increased significantly for Gigabit Ethernet requirements And the general education network is more convenient for text exchange, application and management. It is generally not requested to build a Gigabit network. It has greatly satisfied its application. This requirement of Pujiao.com is the common phenomenon of current network applications in my country. For some hotels, airports, Internet cafes and other hotspots, Gigabit to the desktop is also very fresh. At present, small and medium-sized enterprise users are new groups to join Gigabit Ethernet equipment, which are mostly selected by domestic brands Gigabit Switch and Gigabit NIC. The full Gigabit network application is also promoting "time", and 100 megabytes are just. This is the same as the analysis of Zhang Yong, a manager of Ruijie Network. Zhang Yong summarized according to its recent sales, now the client's devices have an opinion of the equipment of Gigabit Ethernet: First, the price is too high, the investment is not from the heart; Second, the user thinks that it is not worth buying at all. Go to the desktop
Take the information is responsible for the three-year market sales manager Wang Xiaobo, the realization of Gigabit to the desktop, is clearly far from the country, is not only the lack of user funds and the reasons why the concept is not recognized.
3COM company positioned in the SME market, launched 4007 series products in 2000, the 4900 series launched in 2002 is a typical backbone Gigabit switch. In response to SME Gigabit Ethernet market demand, 4007 is the product launched in the early days of user needs. With the development of technology, the product will be replaced by a more mature 4900 gigabit switch. The two products have risen by 30% of this year's accountant information sales last year. Despite the increase in sales, Wang Xiaobo still believes that although Gigabit equipment is continuously expanded, the existing network architecture environment is not possible to achieve Gigabit to the desktop. It requires the joint efforts of the entire network industry. However, another view is completely opposite. Zikui is affirmative, and the difference in the construction of fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet is very small, and the manufacturer has slowly puts the attention at the desktop Gigabit Ethernet. In recent years, most of the number of enterprise users have purchased the Gigabit desktop port between the server and the aggregation layer, the market opportunity is unprecedented. Now, the proportion of the purchase of 100M port is 1: 3, which is expected to reach 1: 1 by 2005. In addition, in the past year, the ASIC chip price reduction, the price of Gigabit Ethernet NIC has dropped by more than 80%, and the Retail price of Intel's Pro / 1000 MT desktop adapter is below 500 yuan; in addition, the leading desktop system manufacturer has Start integrating Gigabit Ethernet interfaces into its popular desktop system product line, a large number of Dell desktops have configured Gigabit Ethernet Lom (Lan On Motherboard) when shipping, and a variety of IBM Netvista models are now supporting Gigabit Ethernet. Gigabit Ethernet should be "a big mountain river" in domestic applications. However, the fact that cannot be avoided is that the current application bottleneck is mainly network-above resource sharing, media streaming and information resources sharing to the server blocked. In order to further understand the customer application, the reporter further interviewed Liu Yong, the Ningbo Information Center of Zhejiang Agricultural Bank. According to him, the network speed of the business data switching center is 100Mbps. The office network is connected to ordinary 10Mbps. The host currently used is IBM's AS400 and 840. He believes that the host may not be inside the future. Although the business is large, if there is a lot of outlets, it will affect the stability of the network, but existing network transmission rates are fully used. Liu Yong believes that maybe those network providers that offer broadband video, and bank data is small, network transmission business does not need to use Gigabit Access; banks do not need large broadband and high networks that require stability and safety surroundings. Most domestic providers believe that the popularity of Gigabit network equipment and the wide application of 10 gigabonds are complementary. But the eyes are only in the early stage of promotion. The dealer has also formed a large and medium-sized division, and generally small Si is not concerned about the Gigabit network product market; this is related to the entire large environment, just as the volume of Gigabit NIC is not linked to the application of the terminal user, the future At least 2 to 5 years can be achieved to achieve the trend of servers' high bandwidth connection technology to the trend of desktop metastasis.
