Heavy Networking 642: 10Mbps Single Pair Ethernet

Single pair Ethernet. That’s right. Ethernet over a single twisted pair, rather than the four you’re used to. Or two if you’ve got a little gray in your beard. Now, single pair Ethernet isn’t fast in the way we network engineers would normally think of fast. SPE runs at 10 megabits per second. But in the use cases SPE was designed for, 10Mbps is very fast indeed. To tell us all about single pair Ethernet is Peter Jones. Although Peter wears many hats in the networking industry, today he comes to the microphone as the chairperson of the Ethernet Alliance.

PingPlotter’s Internet Troubleshooting Helps Ruby Receptionists

The following post is by PingPlotter. We thank PingPlotter for being a sponsor. An internet connection monitoring tool, PingPlotter constantly tests the connection from the end-user’s perspective, provides visual proof of the problem, and recommends how to solve it. You can find issues — like packet loss, high latency, and bad jitter — fast. “Most […]

Heavy Networking 641: Network Design For NVMe Over Fabric

Today on Heavy Networking, we discuss NVMe over fabric, where your Ethernet and IP network is the fabric. Many NVMe over fabric discussions focus on what’s happening inside the storage packets themselves. This conversation focuses on the network. What does the topology need to be? What are the latency and loss characteristics of an NVMe transport fabric? What QoS tools should you be considering, how do they work, and when should you use them? Our guest for this vendor-neutral conversation is J Metz.

Why SASE Requires A New Way Of Thinking

The following post is sponsored by Palo Alto Networks. SASE, or Secure Access Service Edge, doesn’t require new skills for network engineers so much as a new mindset. You don’t learn a new routing protocol or encryption tunnel. You do need to embrace diverse connectivity options, hybrid work, and supporting applications that are on premises […]
