Subject: IEEE Industry Connections Ethernet Bandwidth Assessment Approval: Agreed to at IEEE 802.3 Plenary meeting, San Diego, 19th July 2012 During the IEEE P802.3ba 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s Ethernet project, it was observed that the bandwidth requirements for core networking and computing applications were growing at different rates, driving the need to develop the two new wireline Ethernet speeds. In order to maintain an ongoing understanding of the industry bandwidth trends, the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Bandwidth Assessment Ad Hoc was created. The scope of this ad hoc was to focus on gathering information that would enable an assessment of the bandwidth needs for Ethernet wireline applications, including, but not limited to, core networking and computing. The attached assessment is the culmination of the open 2011 industry assessment performed by the ad hoc. It includes a summary of the data brought forward by individuals throughout the Ethernet ecosystem. All contributed information is solely the perspective of the respective contributors. It should be noted that all submitted data should be considered a snapshot of the perceived bandwidth requirements at the time of submission.

Sincerely, David Law Chair, IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Working Group
