Wired Ethernet
As gigabit-speed Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) become common on newer computers,
wired Ethernet remains a good choice for speed, economy, and security. Gigabit Ethernet can
extend up to 100 meters with twisted-pair wiring of CAT-5e or better. A wired connection is
not susceptible to interference, and eavesdropping would require a physical connection to
your network.

Assessing Your Speed Requirements
Because your Internet connection is likely to operate at a much lower speed than your local
network, faster local networking technologies may not improve your Internet experience.
However, many emerging home applications require high data rates. For example:
network, faster local networking technologies may not improve your Internet experience.
However, many emerging home applications require high data rates. For example:
•
Streaming HD video requires 10 to 30 Mbps per stream. Because latency and packet loss can
disrupt your video, plan to provide at least twice the capacity you need.

•
Streaming MP3 audio requires less than 1 Mbps per stream and does not strain most modern
networks. Like video, however, streaming audio is also sensitive to latency and packet loss, so
a congested network or a noisy link can cause problems.

Backing up computers over the network has become popular due to the availability of
inexpensive mass storage.

Note: Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors,
including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and
network overhead, can lower actual data throughput rate.
