Gigabit On Copper

Today's networks require a higher level of performance to
give you to compete in the marketplace. Hawking’s
GS224T Gigabit Ethernet Switch solutions equip you with
easy-to-use, standards-based technology that delivers the
throughput your users demand using the Ethernet
technology. 1000BASE-T is Ethernet that provides
speeds of 1000 Mbps over Category 5 copper cabling.
The IEEE Standards Committee formally ratified
1000BASE-T as an Ethernet standard in June 1999.
The Hawking’s GS224T Gigabit Switch provides 2 RJ-45
1000BASE-T ports to connect Gigabit Backbone or
Gigabit Server to increases the performance of your
network. The GS224T provides a full wire-rate Gigabit
Switch port for greater network performance.

Migrating Ethernet/Fast Ethernet
Networks Toward High-Speed
Networking

The first upgrade phase is implemented in three areas:

• Upgrading the backbone with a 100/1000 Mbps
Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet switch

• Upgrading the workgroup switches that support
power users or large workgroups with Gigabit
Ethernet uplink

• Implementing 100/1000 Mbps Fast
Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet NICs in key servers

As a result, the speed of the backbone increases tenfold
to accommodate the overall increase in network
bandwidth demand while the investment in existing
workgroup switches, end-station NICs, and existing
cabling is preserved.

The second migration phase is the upgrading of power
users to 100/1000 Mbps Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet
NICs. Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop will be supported,
giving power users full access to the resources of the
network.
