10GBASE-T: 10Gigabit Ethernet over Twisted-pair Copper - Aug. 07
This white paper addresses three key topics about 10GBASE-T: the reason for 10GBASE-T, including a description of some 10GBASE-T applications; how it works, which explores the fundamental technology; and how you use it, which explains cabling and field-testing issues.
Moving 10 Gigabit Ethernet into a Volume Platform - Feb. 06
Two challenges exist as 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) is extended beyond its initial role. Achieving 10Gbps on copper unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling, and meeting the application's requirements for low power is also needed for 10GBASE-T to meet its full potential.

Using 10 Gigabit Ethernet in Volume Applications
DesignCon 2006 An Overview of 10GBaseT: Moving 10-Gigabit Ethernet onto UTP: Moving 10GE into a volume platform. Two challenges exist as 10GE is extended beyond its initial role. Achieving 10 Gbps on copper UTP cabling is a significant technical achievement. Meeting the application's requirements for low power is also needed for 10GBASE-T to meet its full potential.
