  • Abstract
    This paper quantifies the energy consumption in six 10 Gbps and four 1 Gbps interconnects at a fine-grained level, introducing two metrics for calculating the energy efficiency of a network interface from the perspective of network throughput and host CPU usage. It further compares the energy efficiency of multiport 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps interconnects.
