IEEE 802.3ba

IEEE 802.3ba is a standard set by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers that defines high-speed Ethernet technology, primarily for data centers and enterprise networks. It outlines how devices can connect and communicate at very fast speeds, up to 40 Gbps (gigabits per second) and 100 Gbps, over twisted-pair cables, fiber optics, and other media. This standard helps ensure compatibility and reliable performance across different equipment, enabling large-scale data transfer, cloud computing, and multimedia applications with improved speed and efficiency.
