Throughput on gigabit switch

[CPTBoy]

Just want to confirm that 940 Mbits/s is "normal" for a gigabit switch?

iperf Done.

Yup.

 

[CPTBoy]

Great, thanks!

 

[Rickster]

Great, thanks!

You think its low or weirdly high?

Neither actually, I know there are some losses.

Just wanted to confirm that my switch falls in the "standard" range. I have never had a gigabit switch at home, and was doubting my own wiring, patching and fly lead skills ...

Unless you have SSD's on both ends it doesnt matter...

I actually do, but that's not the point of the excercise.

Just want everything to be 100% before fibre is installed.

If you have wiring/patching issues you'll see much worse throughput than that, and possibly even a fallback to 100TX
