The Half-Speed Revolution - (Episode 142)
Manage episode 512754342 series 3432772
Welcome to The Half-Speed Revolution—the episode where we question why 2.5 and 5-gigabit Ethernet even exist. In reality, "multi-gig" is more akin to a speed bump than a bridge connecting 1G and 10G. This "revolution" feels incomplete, with overpriced switches, overheating NICs, and cable runs that fail certification upon inspection. We’ll talk about flaky drivers, weak firewalls, pointless uplinks, and why the smartest move might just be skipping straight to 10G.
