The Things You Need to Know about 10GBASE-R Ethernet Standards
2016-12-05
Introduction
In this article we will talk about the 10GBASE-R Ethernet standard and what is the difference between 10GBASE-R and 10GBASE-X, All this just to give you more understanding about 10GBASE-R technology.
What is the 10GBASE-R technology?
10GBASE-R (LAN) is the serial encoded PCS using 64b/66b encoding that allows for Ethernet framing at a rate of 10.3125 Gbit/s. This rate does not match the rate 9.953 Gbit/s used in SONET and SDH and is not supported over a WAN based on SONET or SDH.
What is the Difference Between 10GBASE-R and 10GBASE-X
10GBASE-R
The version 10GBASE-R has following features.
- Supports 64B/66B signal encoding
- Supports transmission over optical fiber medium
- 10GBASE-SR, 10GBASE-LR, 10GBASE-ER and 10GBASE-LRM configurations are available
10GBASE-X
The version 10GBASE-X has following features.
- Supports 8B/10B signal encoding
- Supports both copper (10GBASE-CX4) as well as fiber optic (10GBASE-LX4) mediums
