Hi Guys,

I have a stupid question that i would like to asking you guys we have switches and routers that are "Interfaces on Gi" but our machines are on 100mbps speed so is there any advantage for this?

I mean can the speed triple for the machines that staff's are using the servers under the switches?

hi saeed,

the short answer is no.

you would need a gigabit (1000 mbps) NIC installed on your clients in order to take advantage of your switch's gig ports.

OK thanks.

But on switches and router they can communicate fastly due to gigabit interfaces. Am i right?

yes they do.
