In parallel and subsequent to the development of TIA-942, the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet working group published two twisted-pair copper standards, 1000 Mb/s Ethernet designated 1000BASE-T and 10 Gb/s Ethernet (10 GbE) designated 10GBASE-T, both standards are targeted at meeting the increasing bandwidth requirements for data center applications. This white paper will discuss the TIA-942 Data Center standard with emphasis on data center cabling and 10GBASE-T twisted-pair Ethernet data center applications.
