Table 1. Base Network Requirements
Recommended Specification Optimal Specification
1000BaseT (1000 Mbps) Ethernet Multi-port Switch* 10GBaseT (10 Gbps) Ethernet Multi-port Switch
Category 5 Patch cabling (CAT5e) Category 6 Patch cabling (CAT6)
Category 5 Facility cabling (CAT5e) Category 6 Facility cabling (CAT6)
Note: *Trapeze will support older slower technologies such as 100BaseT (100 Mbps) Ethernet Multiport Switch designs however they are not recommended.
