What is GigE?

GigE (Gigabit Ethernet) is a networking technology based on the Ethernet standard but with Gigabit speeds (1 Gbps or higher). It is commonly used in industrial and machine vision applications to transmit high-bandwidth data, such as images and video, from cameras to computers or other processing devices with low latency and high reliability. It's also used for general networking where higher speeds than standard Ethernet are needed.
