Ha...somewhere in Batcave I have IBM Token Ring and ArcNet cards....I am pretty sure I have an NCR WaveLAN ISA card in ancient XT PC....

But as the market meets demand, prices should come down. Remember back when 10/100 switches were $1000? Now, you can get a 24 Port 1G switch with 10G uplinks for, what, $400? In another 10 years, 100G will probably be the same. Pickup a 24 Port 100G switch with 1TB uplinks for $200. Although at the same time, Throwing more Bandwidth at the problem just makes for sloppier code. Average webpage loads are now, what 5-6mb, for really no more content. Things used to be efficient, as it was the programs responsibility for performance, Now it's the clients responsibility if things are slow (upgrade your PC, upgrade your internet) https://xkcd.com/1605/ On 2/5/2016 10:34 AM, Adam Moffett wrote: You tell them and they'll tell you how your capital expenses don't matter.

Yeah, until you have to route those packets, rather than just transporting a beam of light. -----Original Message----- From: Faisal Imtiaz Sent: Friday, February 05, 2016 8:57 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 100Gbps It's not un-common to do 100Gpbs as follows:- Bonding 10x 10G circuits Bonding a combination of 40G circuits. providing 100G switched transport is easy. Having a router, to do 100G transport is not, Expect to pay approx $100k for a router (loaded ready to go, on the 2ndary markets) Regards.

Let's just say, for a minute, that I could sell Adobe a 100Gbps line. What would that be priced at? I think I can do it technically with a pair of fiber I can get end to end. Are their LD optics at 100Gbps yet? Or are we still talking dense wave multiplexing?
