  2. Registered jack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Registered_jack

    A cable with a 50-pin connector on one end can support six fully wired 8P8C connectors or Ethernet ports on a patch panel with one spare pair. Alternatively, only the necessary pairs for 10/100 Ethernet can be wired allowing twelve Ethernet ports with a single spare pair. This connector is also used with spring bail locks for SCSI-1 connections.

    An Ethernet port on a laptop computer connected to a twisted pair cable with an 8P8C modular connector Symbol used by Apple and Google on some devices to denote an Ethernet connection Ethernet ( / ˈ iː θ ər n ɛ t / EE -thər-net ) is a family of wired computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), metropolitan ...

  4. Ethernet physical layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_physical_layer

    50 Ω coaxial cable connects machines together, each machine using a T-connector to connect to its NIC. Requires terminators at each end. For many years during the mid to late 1980, this was the dominant Ethernet standard. Also called Thin Ethernet, Thinnet or Cheapernet. 10 Mbit/s over RG-58 coaxial cabling, bus topology with collision ...

  5. 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5GBASE-T_and_5GBASE-T

    By bonding the connections from multiple Ethernet ports via IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation or similar, manufacturers were able to achieve speeds close to 2 Gbit/s by using two ports that support gigabit speeds. This would require the wireless access point to be connected to the rest of the network with 2 Ethernet cables and require both the ...

  6. SERCOS III - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SERCOS_III

    Sercos III does not define whether a port should operate in cut-through switching or store-and-forward mode when handling UC frames. There are Sercos III products currently on the market that support both modes. Likewise, Sercos III does not define whether a port should intelligently process UC telegrams, such as learning the network topology.

  7. Ethernet over twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_twisted_pair

    Most Ethernet cables are wired straight-through (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and so on). In some instances, the crossover form (receive to transmit and transmit to receive) may still be required. A cable for Ethernet may be wired to either the T568A or T568B termination standard at both ends of the cable. Since these standards differ only ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_Unit_Interface

    An AUI connector is a DA-15 (D-subminiature) type, where the DTE side has a female connector and the MAU side has a male connector. [1]The connector often uses a sliding clip instead of the typical thumbscrews found on D-connectors, allowing the DTE and MAU to be directly attached, even when their size or shape would not accommodate thumbscrews.

  9. Medium-dependent interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-dependent_interface

    These are referred to as MDI and MDI-X (medium-dependent interface crossover). When connecting an MDI port to an MDI-X port, a straight-through cable is used, while to connect two MDI ports or two MDI-X ports, a crossover cable must be used. Conventionally, MDI is used on end devices and routers while MDI-X is used on hubs and switches.
