Thanks everyone for their replies. As I now understand it, the 1Gb
uplink just moves data faster than... say, a 100Mb uplink. Correct?
Conversations between hosts on each switch still take place one at a
time, thereby obeying Ethernet rules of one station transmitting at a
time. Correct?
Okay m
your GE x-connect, in this instance, is basically a serial line - see the TX
and RX fibres in the GBIC?
conversations would occur one at a time, and be multuplexed (statistically
Mux-ed). The conversations would be queued and transmitted one frame at a
time, but that frames from the conversation

CSMA/CD only gets used when you are not in full duplex. (/me ducks) ( i
have NEVER seen a full-dup. hub) meaning that if i am using a switch capable
of full duplex (as most are) ..conversations, every station can transmit as

They would be multiplexed. Ethernet allows many "conversations" between
many hosts on the same wire.

Does this make sense?

I concur. I should have been a bit more clear in that I was addressing the
issue of a gig link between two switches.
For traffic that remains within a single switch, different things can be
done with the switch f

f wire is empty, place packet onto wire, listen, if wire is busy, wait.
