Might Mid-Band Ethernet Make Copper Competitive With Fiber?
Filed in archive Hardware by Dameon Welch-Abemathy on June 02, 2008

That was just a theory. The folks at Hatteras Networks actually have a way to accomplish that-at better speeds than I was proposing. Their Mid-Band Ethernet solution can use up to 8 copper pairs and aggregate that into about a T3-45mb/s symmetrical
. Even with a single copper pair, they can get a very reasonable 5.7 mb/s-almost 4 times as fast as a T1 with only half the wires needed!This proposition is clearly aimed at business-level customers, not us residential types. Too bad, because having 5.7 mb/s of symmetrical data transfer would be awesome!
