[QUOTE="03SoCalCobra, post: 3818319, member: 3979"] Ultimate speed does depend on the hardware at either end; I don't believe they've demonstrated a practical limit to fiber yet (I could be wrong). Cisco has packet switching equipment that will run into the Terabits/sec range; 1Gb & 2Gb setups have been in use for several years; 10Gb/s stuff is becomming common and 100Gb/s is not unheard of either. Just make sure the modules you're using for the fiber coorispond to the fiber type (single mode/multi-mode) and *always* have the fiber certified to at least the speed the equipment hooked to it will run at, if not higher. Terminating fiber isn't quite as easy as wiring copper and believe me, if you have any network issues you'll be forever happy you had it certified so it's not anything you generally have to worry about. A good quick primer on multi mode vs. single mode fiber- [url]http://luxlink.com/faq/multi_or_single.htm[/url] [/QUOTE]
