How much traffic is a 48-port gigabit switch capable of handling when operating at full wire speed?
Suppose the round-trip propagation delay for Ethernet is $46.4 \mu \mathrm{s}$. This yields a minimum packet size of 512 bits ( 464 bits corresponding to propagation delay $+$ 48 bits of jam signal). (a) What happens to the minimum packet size if the delay time is held constant, and the signalling rate rises to $100 \mathrm{Mbps}$ ? (b) What are the drawbacks to so large a minimum packet size? (c) If compatibility were not an issue, how might the specifications be written so as to permit a smaller minimum packet size?
