The PS3 has 1 Gigabit Ethernet port. The port accepts Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependent interface crossover), so no need for special crosscables when hooking up the PS3 direct to the PC.

<pre>productcode meaning:
88E6108-LAR1
Type: Ethernet
Speed : 1Gbps
Ports : 8
Package : 144-TQFP
(sorry, no explaination yet)</pre>


The Marvell 88E6108-LAR1 is sort of a switching hub chip, with several ports that can be used in different configurations:
*Notes
**The speeds in the table are the average speeds, not the peaks, to stabilize speeds is needed to transfer a single file of size 2GB or bigger and take note of the speed average after the transfer is completed
**The FTP code included inside rebug toolbox is based on OpenPS3FTP.
**More results have been updated and also existing results got updated as well, [REBUG 4.70.1/4.75.3]
**FTP Speed seems to be the same since 4.30 update until 4.76
**Iris Manager v2.93 (last official version by estwald)... and probably all its forks (ps3ita manager, etc...) has a problem of slow speeds when transfering files PS3 to PC

== Jumbo frames ==
Servers
From Linux perspective (under OtherOS &lt;=3.15), the old drivers set up MTU to 2308, while newer version used MTU 1518. This could be a hypervisor restriction (needs research).
