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.
