|
David Gwynne (in Australia), Reyk Floeter (in Germany), and Claudio Jeker (in |
|
Switzerland) are working on support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet devices. These |
|
developers would like the following hardware to help development: |
|
<ul> |
|
<li>Switches with 10Gb modules for hacking |
|
<li>CX4 cabling |
|
<li>XFP optical cabling (for 10GbaseSR and 10GbaseLR) |
