Making optimum use of large quantities of data, also known as big data, has always been a major challenge to companies and other institutions. But if the data has to be guaranteed as tap-proof in transmission, the flow can quickly slow to a dribble. Rohde & Schwarz SIT at CeBIT 2014 provides a solution to this problem: R&S®SITLine ETH 40G, to world’s first Ethernet encoder with a 40Gigabit/s data throughput.
SITLine ETH 40G was specially designed for the encoded exchange of extremely large quantities of data in real time. It is the first device to optimize performance-critical factors like bandwidth, latency, quality-of-service, port depth and energy consumption in a single device. The encoding is then done on a security level (Layer2), which then offers an additional advantage: compared to the IP encoding (Layer3), the security overhead is reduced by up to 4%, saving bandwidth. The Ethernet encoder has been designed primarily for operators and users of computing centers, for use in backbone networks and location coupling within corporations.
