Does anyone use an ethernet hub?

<< < (3/3)

aesmith:
Serialisation delay on Gigabit is around 12 microseconds maximum.   In the early days of Ethernet switches some manufacturers made a big deal of "cut through" vs "store and forward", but nowadays very few switches cut through.  The benefit is very slight and in any case when more than one ingress packet needs to egress on the same port, they'd need to buffer anyway.
