Australian researchers from National ICT Australia (NICTA) have developed a lower power, short range chip for wireless communications that can achieve up to 5Gbps -- allowing them to transfer a complete DVD in a matter of seconds.
With the expected launch of its new UltraSparc T2 chip Sun will once again sell microprocessors, but this time round it has plans to expand beyond the server market.
IBM, Cisco Systems and other powerful computing companies have allied to create a version of the Fibre Channel storage networking technology that runs over more ordinary Ethernet networks.
Law firm Middletons has replaced its Melbourne network switching infrastructure with Nortel hardware as part of a move to a new office.
The prototype of a short-range gigabit wireless chip, which promises more than 2Gbps throughput speeds and costs just AU$10, will be unveiled by the end of this year, according to researchers from National ICT Australia (NICTA).
Yes, I confess. I used the high-speed AARNet network built for academics for hours and hours for years on end to kill people in Quake.
Australian SMBs are hungry for storage, yet have been left underserved by major storage vendors. However, increasing demand for digital marketing and fast access to information is causing vendors to take notice of this once-neglected sector.
During the holiday season, snow isn't the only thing analysts shovel. With that in mind, senior analyst at the Enterprise Strategy Group, Jon Oltsik, takes a look forward on networking technology and related industry trends in 2008.
A group of researchers have found a way to transfer the equivalent of three DVDs per second.
Forget Internet2. The National LambdaRail is the most ambitious network research project going. But can it save the optical networking industry?
Cisco's Mario Mazzola offers a behind-the-scenes look at the company's next-generation core Internet router.
The prototype of a short-range gigabit wireless chip, which promises more than 2Gbps throughput speeds and costs just AU$10, will be unveiled by the end of this year, according to researchers from National ICT Australia (NICTA).
The Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router bears the same sleek, antenna-free design as its sibling the WRT160N, except features a four port gigabit switch. We are a little disappointed at the lack of a USB port, which means it can't act as a print server or easily facilitate network storage. It more than makes up for these lacking features, however, with excellent performance in CNET Labs' testing.
The ProCurve Switch 8212zl is a sophisticated and highly configurable network switch capable of handling 48 10-Gigibit Ethernet ports.
We look at three hardware tools and one software tool for network maintenance.
Few managers consider it a sexy area, but well-planned storage systems are critical to the functioning of businesses of all sizes. How has storage technology evolved and how can you plan the right system at the right price?
Is it possible that analog chips will displace the zeros and ones at the heart of the binary language used in computing for some 20 years?
