First 10GB Etherjack ®
Quote

Norcross, Georgia, USA and Martinsried/Munich, Germany. November 3, 2011. ADVA Optical Networking launched today the ADVA FSP 150CC-XG210, an ultra-compact 10Gbit/s Ethernet service demarcation and aggregation device.

My question is: When will I get that in my house? Next year? Soon?When would a personal user need to transfer at a rate of 10GB/s? I can understand a commercial computer, one which would be serving multiple people at the same time, but personal users don't need this...yetQuote

I noticed you are using Windows XP.

Not long ago people were saying 'No way would a home user never need a 1 TB hard drive'.
With optical technology, extreme date transfer is possible and almost here.

That question may come off as rhetorical, but it was a honest question. Sure, file sizes are increasing with the capacity of storage space, but when would we need to transfer files at speeds ~10GB/s? At that speed, you could download 36000GB (35.15625 TB) in an hour...How much farther in the future would we have to go where people actually need to download ~35TB in an hour? At my ISP's maximum download speed for my plan, I can download 7200MB/hour, but I'm lucky to get 1800MB/hour.

I'm upgrading to Windows 7 in the coming week(s)."The new unit can be used in business services, wholesale services, as well as mobile backhaul." This is an industrial type item of equipment, intended for use in business scale optical network systems and installation in cell phone towers. This whole thread is just plain stupid. You would no more find a home use for one of these than you would find a domestic use for a transformer like this:

Not really. First, the 'quote' was 640k, second, Gates never actually said that, it's misattributed, the only source is from old newspapers, really.

QUESTION: "I read in a newspaper that in 1981 you said '640K of memory should be enough for anybody.' What did you MEAN when you said this?"

ANSWER: "I've said some stupid things and some wrong things, but not that. No one involved in computers would ever say that a certain amount of memory is enough for all time."

Gates goes on a bit about 16-bit computers and megabytes of logical address space.

"Meanwhile, I keep bumping into that silly quotation attributed to me that says 640K of memory is enough. There's never a citation; the quotation just floats like a rumor, repeated again and again."

And even then, just tack "at this point in time" to the end of it and suddenly it's accurate.
I want one of those power units...
Then i'll look into Geeks device... Things are always GETTING bigger and better. That's the nature of things with computers as technology advances. Space Quest V, for example, was released in 1993. In a little more recent interview the creator, Mark Crowe, said people thought they were out of their minds for making a game that was some 10MB, considered huge for a game at the time and distributed on 5 floppy disks.

CD-ROMs were available at the time of release, but not used simply because it was overkill (12MB on a 700MB disc). 20 years later, most games come on one or two DVD discs and outsize games from that age by millions of times (literally).

10Gb/s now might seem way too much, but it won't in 10 years.But you still won't need an aggregator like that in your home. That's my point. has anybody checked what an aggregator does?

our FSP 150CC-XG210 is the ideal solution for all Carrier Ethernet applications in access and backhaul networks. You can deploy it as a demarcation solution to HAND over reliable and scalable high capacity access to your carrier and enterprise customers. Or use it as an ENNI and aggregation solution further back in your network. Seamless interworking with our lower speed FSP 150CC demarcation solutions is guaranteed. And it comes with a temperature-hardened design to offer you maximum deployment flexibility – both indoor and outdoor.

I wasn't referring to the aggregator part, just the speed part. Actually, 10Gb connections have been around for a number of years, just not commonly in a RJ45 jack, usually with some type of fiber connector. And they have been used for years in commercial applications in long haul interconnects and data centers.
