Data Centers? (Yes or No Poll)

I don’t see what you don’t understand ieee standard are worldwide when it comes to network, it is not just limited to country based. Network speed via its satellite based from JP server sync in japan to na servers in CA, they all utilize fiber network rather its trans-oceanic cable or satellite uplink. The introduction to new standard of greater throughput fuels that growth of uplink when it comes to data and terminals. IEEE standards doesn’t just bring out new cable set up, but new hard to go with it, and its not like japan is being left out of the loop, it is why it’s called a standard.

I didn't say IEEE standards aren't worldwide, I simply stated that the performance gains from the IEEE standard revision will largely benefit transfer speeds between systems on a LAN.

I'll put it into perspective. Say we have a fiber optic line straight from Tokyo to Los Angeles. Say we have perfect conditions to run data through it. In this perfect, never-going-happen, situation, it'll take the packet 41ms to travel that distance. Now add in the time it takes the server to process and send out the packet. Then add in all of the different routing that needs to happen before it even leaves Tokyo. Now add in some more routing before it even gets to you from your ISP. Now add in the time it takes to process and render the information on the screen.

All of it adds up and this doesn't even include the callbacks and packet loss that happen. No change in IEEE standard is going to reduce this amount of time significantly.
