Default Carbon AVB Ethernet max throughput

What is the max throughput of Carbon's AVB Ethernet? 1Gb/s? 10Gb/s?

I've discovered the 2020 iMac I've been using with Carbon has only the stock Ethernet card (1 Gb/s). However, I do have an upgraded iMac with the 10Gb/s option.

I'm going to swap them, but I've wondered whether the slower Ethernet might have played a role in ProTools losing network sync and random weirdness from the S1 console.

Perhaps the bottleneck is the NetGear 1Gb/s ethernet switch? Considering Ubiquiti 10Gb/s switch.

Carbon port 1 --> iMac (1Gb/s ethernet)
Carbon port 2 --> NetGear 1Gb/s switch --> Avid S1 --> iMac (10Gb/s ethernet)
