An extension to 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
Offering 1000 megabits per second data rate
An emerging IEEE 802.3z Ethernet standard
The first draft of the standard was produced by IEEE in January
1997
The final standard was approved in June 1998
Can be implemented in either hubs (repeaters) or switches
The hub is a shared medium technology (medium access control
such as CSMA/CD is needed) and the switch is a dedicated
medium technology (no medium access controls are needed)
Allows half-duplex (HDX) and full-duplex (FDX) operation at
speeds of 1000 Mbps (2000 Mbps effective throughput for FDX)
Expected to be deployed initially as a backbone network as well as
for high speed server connections

Physical Layer Technology
0 The Physical Layer technology for Gigabit Ethernet is mainly based
on the ANSI X3T11 standards for Fibre Channel
0 Since Fibre Channel technology has been in use for for several
years, the IEEE 802.3z standards committee decided to adopt this
technology to reduce development time and risk for the Gigabit
Ethernet standard
0 Four physical media types are defined for Gigabit Ethernet
- Single mode fiber
- Multimode fiber
- Shielded twisted pair cable (STP)
- Unshielded twisted pair (UTP-5) cable
0 Two Physical Layer standards
- 1000BASE-X (IEEE 802.3z)
- 1000BASE-T (IEEE 802.3ab)

Physical Layer Technology (continued)
0 1000BASE-X is based on Fibre Channel Physical Layer standard
- Three media types included in 1000BASE-X
= 1000BASE-SX: Short wavelength (850 nm) laser on
multimode fiber
= 1000BASE-LX: Long wavelength (1300 nm) laser on single
mode and multimode fiber
= 1000BASE-CX: Short haul copper “twinax” STP
- 1000BASE-SX is targeted at lowest cost multimode fiber runs
in horizontal and shorter backbone applications
- 1000BASE-LX is targeted at longer multimode building fiber
backbones and single mode campus backbones
- 1000BASE-CX is used for interconnection of equipment within
a short distance (25 m) in a computer room
- Based on Fibre channel’s 8B/10B encoding (25% overhead)
- 1.25 Gbps wire speed to achieve 1 Gbps data rate

Physical Layer Technology (continued)
0 1000BASE-T Standard
- A standard (IEEE 802.3ab) for Gigabit Ethernet over 4 pairs of
Category 5 UTP for distance up to 100 meters
- Based on the specifications of ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A (1995)
- No need to replace existing Category 5 cabling (conforming to
1995 ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A standards) to use 1000BASE-T
- Any link supporting 100BASE-TX should support 1000BASE-T
- Installed cabling should be tested for return loss (echo), caused
by impedance mismatches (typically the fault of of poor
connectors) and far-end crosstalk (signal leakage from
adjoining wire pairs at the far end of the transmitter creates
electrical noise)
- Uses a symbol rate of 125 Mbaud
- uses a more sophisticated 4-dimensional, 5-level Pulse
Amplitude Modulation (4D-PAM5) coding scheme

Performance Issues
0 Limitations of shared medium (HDX) Gigabit Ethernet
- Without modification to the Ethernet MAC layer protocol, the
maximum network diameter/size of Gigabit Ethernet is limited
to about 20 m
- To keep the maximum network diameter/size of Gigabit
Ethernet to 200 m (same as Fast Ethernet), the minimum
CSMA/CD carrier time and the Ethernet slot time have been
extended to 512 bytes (should be 640 bytes)
- Packets smaller than 512 bytes have an extra carrier extension
- If all traffic consisting of 64-byte frames, the effective
throughput would drop to 120 Mbps
- The Gigabit Ethernet throughput would be between 300 - 400
Mbps for average frame size on most Ethernet in the 200- 500byte range
