Comparisons with gigabit networks seems a pointless given that most VPNs will be used over the Internet which limits bandwidth, how fast is fast enough? The average small-to-medium business office will probably have a network connection in the neighborhood of T1 speed or perhaps a somewhat faster business cable connection, but these are slower than the slowest ethernet or even WiFi connections.
