NUMBER_TOKEN gigabit port for incoming traffic if all the other outgoing ports are just one gigabit well it does mean you're not going to be getting two plus gigabits on your client devices but the faster single wan port eliminates a bottleneck at the back end for example if you have two computers both trying to download a huge game they could each run their downloads at around one gigabit per second instead of less than half of that if your incoming port was just a one port so the idea here is to allow consumers to take advantage of some of the benefits of NUMBER_TOKEN gigabit without being too expensive especially considering the vast majority of client devices like tvs and game consoles and typical desktop computers out there right now they just they only have one gigabit but what if your computer isn't typical what if you've kitted out with a shiny new NUMBER_TOKEN gig adapter card can you go faster well yes if you have the right equipment and we're gonna tell you more about that right after we thank our sponsor zoho crm for sponsoring this video zoho crm is a NUMBER_TOKEN degree solution for managing your business to sales marketing and customer service with their intuitive ui and simple navigation it's easy to implement their service quickly and efficiently they offer ai predictions to help you with insights and to better understand your customers needs plus their design studio helps you customize your experience so that you can spot critical information at a glance zoho offers flexible contracts transparent pricing and an ever-evolving product that grows to meet your needs without snowballing costs learn more at URL_TOKEN crm so if you want to pass that NUMBER_TOKEN gig speed from your router to your other devices it's pretty easy to buy NUMBER_TOKEN gigabit network switches these days and unlike routers these tend to have all the ports running the same speed not only are these useful for connecting any new NUMBER_TOKEN gig computers you might have but they can help you if you run a home media server multiple computers trying to access high resolution videos can do so without back-end bottlenecking similar to the example we gave earlier about sharing an internet connection but remember that to connect everything together seamlessly and still have high speed backhaul you will typically need a second higher speed ethernet port on your router for your fancy NUMBER_TOKEN gigabit switch so that's NUMBER_TOKEN to the outside world's internet and then another NUMBER_TOKEN to the switch and although these NUMBER_TOKEN gig switches are significantly more expensive than gigabit only options there's still way less money than the faster NUMBER_TOKEN gig models which often have just one or two NUMBER_TOKEN gig ports to again keep cost down these are designed more for enterprise settings where you need a really high speed backbone for your network though at the time we wrote this video there are actually a couple of NUMBER_TOKEN gigabit home routers on the market with two supported ports each one of which features a design that looks uncomfortably like a daddy long legs so bottom line a router with a NUMBER_TOKEN gigabyte port could be useful if you have really fast internet and have multiple folks using lots of bandwidth but the fancier stuff is probably more in the realm of the home media server crowd offices or other niche use cases like having a whole den of video editors on your staff but who in the world would have that so thanks for watching guys if you liked this video hit like hit subscribe and hit us up in the comments section with your ideas for topics that we should cover in the future
