Techopedia Explains Ethernet
Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) is a form of technology used in Ethernet frame transmissions, where Gb refers to the data transmission rate expressed in units of 1,000,000,000 bps. GbE data is transmitted in bundled units, which ensures delivery of the majority of data, even when there are destination delays with one frame or packet. Thus, not all of the data is held back while transmitting and receiving computers grapple with minor data delays.
