What’s theoretical possible
1000 Million Bit/s on the line
119,2 MByte/s gross amount (1 MByte = 1048576 Byte)
without the minimum Interframe Gap (12 byte)
For a 1518 Byte Frame the rate drops to 118 MByte/s
without the Preamble, Address, Typ, CRC (another 26 byte)
For a 1518 Byte Frame the rate drops to 116 MByte/s
without the IP Header (20 byte)
For a 1518 Byte Frame the rate drops to 115 MByte/s
without the UDP Header (8 byte)
For a 1518 Byte Frame (1472 byte load)
the rate drops to 114 MByte/s UDP-Data
For a 64 Byte Frame (only 18 byte load)
the rate is down to 25 MByte/s
Frame size should be as large as possible
using jumboframes when appropriate (take care for switches ..)
