NUMBERS
4B/5B
A block encoding scheme used to send Fast Ethernet data. In this signal encoding scheme, 4 bits of data are turned into 5-bit code symbols for transmission over the media system.
10BASE-T
10 Mbps Ethernet system based on Manchester signal encoding transmitted over Category 3 or better twisted-pair cable.
10BASE-FL
Popular 10 Mbps link fiber optic solution which replaces the older FOIRL implementation utilizing 850 nm fiber optic technology.
100BASE-FX
100 Mbps Fast Ethernet system based on 4B/5B signal encoding transmitted over fiber optic cable utilzing 1300 nm fiber optic technology.
100BASE-SX
850 nm fiber optic technology that supports auto-negotiaton. 100BASE-SX devices can communicate with 10BASE-FL devices at 10 Mbps and other 100BASE-SX devices at 100 Mbps.
100BASE-TX
100 Mbps Fast Ethernet system based on 4B/5B signal encoding transmitted over two copper pairs.
100BASE-X
Term used when referring to any Fast Ethernet media system based on 4B/5B block encoding. Includes 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX media systems.
802.3
IEEE Working Group for CSMA/CD LANs.
A
AUI
Attachment Unit Interface. The 15-pin signal interface defined in the original Ethernet standard that carries signals between a station and an outboard transceiver.
Auto-Negotiation
A Protocol defined in the Ethernet standard that allows devices at either end of a link segment to advertise and negotiate modes of operation such as the speed of the link, half- or full-duplex operation and full-duplex flow control.
Auto-MDIX
A protocol which allows two Ethernet devices to negotiate their use of the Ethernet TX and RX cable pairs. This allows two Ethernet devices with MDI-X or MDI connectors to connect without using a crossover cable. This feature is also known as Auto-crossover.
B
Bandwidth
The maximum capacity of a network channel. Usually expressed in bits per second (bps). Ethernet channels have bandwidths of 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps.
Baud
A unit of signaling speed representing the number of discrete signal events per second and, depending upon the encoding, can differ from the bit rate.
Bit
A binary digit. The smallest unit of data, either a zero or a one.
Bit Rate
The amount of bits that can be sent per second. Us
