Maybe in the not so near future
When talking about 10G Ethernet connection, everyones forgets that it's almost useless.why? becuase of the hard drivers of course. SATA, at the maximum, can operate at the speed of 3GB/s. and I haven't heard of the hard drive who can even manage to transfer at that speed. so for 10G Ethernet connection to be useful, you need a raid array of a couple hard drivers, and that is not so inexpensive.
The bottom line is this: we need a faster storage solution :)
Fibre Optics
Yep, the problem with wireless is that it obviously and painfully does fry your head.Networking hardware is currently in the same place that IBM-compatible and Apple PCs were at when they first became things people bought for the home - ie, you can only buy them pre-built.
It's somewhat concerning that 10 gig Ethernet is seen as being still out of reach for home networking though - in China and South Korea and Japan, and in some European countries (not the one I live in of course), fibre-optics to the home, for internet connections, already exist and have been around for a while.
Fiber's way faster than 10 gig, and of course more secure - it's not exactly easy to spy on a fibre link even if you manage to cut into the cable without disrupting the transmission.
asynchronous logic
The secret sauce behind Fulcrum's performance is their use of asynchronous VLSI technology... this gives low power and low latency. It may be hard for established companies to match their price and performance using standard design methods.Add a new comment:
