What are the characteristics of gigabit Ethernet?

data can be transferred at a maximum rate of 1000 Mbps data transmission can be via UTP or fiber optic cabling


If you want to upgrade your 100BaseT Ethernet so that it will run about 10 times the current speed what technology would you use?

You would want to move to a Gigabit network. This will require a switch capable of Gigabit speeds, network cabling capable of Gigabit speeds (Cat 5e for example), and a network interface on a computer that is also Gigabit rated. Most modern switches are Gigabit rated (even inexpensive soho switches).


Why would a realtek 8168 LAN card not work at 1gbit speed even though it says that in the manual?

In order for you to achieve gigabit data rates, you need: * A gigabit Ethernet card (as you have) * A gigabit router * Cabling that is of correct length and quality to carry a gigabit signal. If these conditions are not met, the card will drop to the next available transfer rate.
