Server Uplinks.......10,100 mbps.........

[Juicy D. Links]

Now is it possible to get a fiber uplink from server instead of the 100 mbps?

If your provider has gigabit switches, & NICs sure, but It'll probably cost you a little more.

[SinisterStudios]

Sure you can, its more expensive but you can get it. Gigabit copper is probally your best bet

[justsexxx]

Isprime offers this already for some time. They were one of the first host to offer this.

ISprime now offers Gigabit hand-offs directly to customers servers. High bandwith customers such as those doing video streaming can greatly benefit from these upgrades. Contact [email protected] for more infomation and pricing.

You can use gigabit fiber nic cards OR 1000 Copper Ethernet Nic Cards.
SplitInfinity offers gigabit switch links.... fiber OR copper.

A fiber NIC card is like 200 bucks...
A fiber GBIC for a Cisco GBIC port is like 120 bucks
Fiber cable is like 45.00 for a 6 ft cable.


Copper GIgabit Ethernet on the other hand is becoming just as cheap as regular ethernet (10/100). And they are backwards compatible. Most servers we order
come standard with gigabit ethernet ports that do 10/100/1000.
A typical macintosh computer has 10/100/1000 nic card built in... just to show you
how mainstream gigabit copper is.

Since we moved to 10/100/1000 blades, i have dozens of extra Gbic's for our 6509's, wanna buy some?

[SplitInfinity]
