FOREWORD Remotely Monitored PDUs KVM Switches Welcome to NETCOMMS Europe! Intelligent PDUs Hello Readers,
The move towards a 40 Gigabit Ethernet over cop- per cabling standard took several paces forward at the IEEE’s 54th meeting in Geneva this September. However, there is much bigger news from the meet- ing, as Mike Gilmore explains on page 12. If that doesn’t satisfy your interest in high-speed copper, have a read of our interview with Ken Hodge on page 24. We spoke to Ken about the practicalities of 40/100G over copper, how far we are from realising them, and what we should be installing in the meantime.
While ultra high-speeds may be glamorous, it is at least as important to ensure that your existing infra- structure is performing as expected. This is where testing comes in. We asked two of the leading experts in the field of test and measurement to share their expertise in the detection and correction of common network problems.
As we enter our third year of producing Netcomms Europe, we would like to thank our readers for their continued support.
