The Evolution of Ethernet

Authors: 

John D’Ambrosia, Ethernet Alliance and Dell; Chauncey Schwartz II, Ethernet Alliance and QLogic

Abstract: 

Ethernet is the dominant networking technology, driving an interwoven interconnected eco-system that includes cloud computing, data centers, enterprises, high-performance computing, and millions of servers and end users. While solutions range in speeds from 10 Megabit to 100 Gigabit, the reality is that there is more to Ethernet than feeds and speeds. Ethernet continues to evolve to meet the needs of the networking industry, and to grow into areas that wish to leverage networking and the benefits of Ethernet. For this session the Ethernet Alliance will bring together the expertise within its membership to provide an overview on the state of Ethernet standards, technology, and deployment.

Currently, he is chairing the IEEE P802.3bj 100 Gb/s Backplane and Copper Cable Task Force and the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Bandwidth Assessment Ad Hoc. In addition, John is a founder of the Ethernet Alliance, and is currently serving as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Prior to these efforts, John served as chair of the IEEE P802.3ba Task Force, which developed the specifications for 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s Ethernet, as well as chair of the Optical Internetworking Forum's Market Awareness & Education committee.
