Technology Explained

Ethernet

Since its inception, Ethernet has

become the most popular topology in

local area networks. Based on the IEEE

802.3 standard, Ethernet has evolved

over the years and now supports a range

of media and significant enhancements

that the original standard never did.

The 10 Mbps available bandwidth can

be either shared across a number of

users using hubs or dedicated to work-

stations using switched technology.

Fast Ethernet

Fast Ethernet was designed to deliver

higher levels of performance to band-

width-intensive resources such as

servers and high-performance users.

Fast Ethernet is based on the Ethernet

standard yet runs at 10 times the speed

(100 Mbps). It is now one of the most

popular high-speed technologies

because of its cost effectiveness,

stability, and compatibility with

existing Ethernet LAN environments.

Fast Ethernet switching allows dedi-

cated performance between two devices.

10/100 Mbps Ethernet/

Fast Ethernet

This combines both conventional

10BASE-T and high-speed 100BASE-

TX support in one device. The unit

automatically senses the speed of

the connected end device (either

10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) and channels

the data through at the appropriate

speed. It is one of the most economical

and flexible ways to add bandwidth

immediately to congestion areas, while

maintaining the option for migrations

to higher bandwidth in the future.
