Fiber Optic Connections for my Server
Posted on 2011-03-09
New to this. Please Help. I have a Winbdows Server 2003 DC and a Exchange 2003 Box. We are using mostly GB NICS in each Client. The question I have have is would it be a large increase in speed and bandwith if a used GB Fiber Optic connection from my Servers to my main switch. I have 40 PC's lots of inter net usage and lots of email comming through a local T1 line (1.5mb). I cant help to think that I have a bottle neck situation.

GBit Copper and GBit Fibre are still GBit NICs. They both work at 1000Mbps. The only difference is the estimated error-rate, which is less per million packets over fibre than it is over copper.
Any decent network monitoring software will give you the answer.

you can get 10gb copper nics for around $500 but a 10gb switch like a cisco nexus is not cheap as there are not many 10gb switches around at the moment but you can get the virtual nexsus for $1000 and the put in a 10gb copper nic and then all the vms will have at least 256mb and esx does its job the vm;s basically have a 1gb nic
