In Focus: Ethernet
| 🌐 Ethernet The Open Networking Fabric for Cloud, Telecom, Enterprise and AI Infrastructure | |
| Ethernet is the foundational packet networking technology used across enterprise LANs, service provider networks, cloud data centers, telecom infrastructure and AI clusters. Its open standards, broad vendor ecosystem and continuous speed evolution have made Ethernet the dominant fabric for connecting servers, switches, routers, storage systems and accelerators. | |
| Why It Matters | Ethernet continues to evolve from general-purpose networking into the high-performance fabric underpinning cloud-scale computing and distributed AI. Advances in 400G, 800G and 1.6T Ethernet, congestion control, telemetry and transport optimization are enabling Ethernet to support increasingly demanding AI, storage, telecom and hyperscale workloads. |
