I imagine it will be either 10GbE or Nx1GbE on the CPE (or maybe both). 2.5GbE & 5GbE will be out soon (already in new Atom CPUs) and will work over Cat5e/Cat6

I imagine it will be either 10GbE or Nx1GbE on the CPE (or maybe both). 2.5GbE & 5GbE will be out soon (already in new Atom CPUs) and will work over Cat5e/Cat6 up to 100m.
Newer 802.11ac devices can in theory do ~1.7Gbps, about 1Gbps in practice.
- micro-ram 11y ago2.5Gbps = NBASE-T. http://www.nbaset.org/ http://www.nbaset.org/ 5Gbps = MGBASE-T. http://www.mgbasetalliance.org/ http://www.mgbasetalliance.org/ My real world testing of 1.3Gbps 802.11ac only yields about 250Mbps of real throughput. Wifi is half duplex and has more overhead than Ethernet.

- virtuallynathan 11y agoI've tested my R7000 router and MacBook Pro up to ~900Mbps, which is just as good as Ethernet (within 10-15Mbps). Both MG and N BaseT support 2.5G and 5G, not sure why there are 2...
