    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 ...

  3. 5-4-3 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-4-3_rule

    According to the original Ethernet protocol, a signal sent out over the collision domain must reach every part of the network within a specified length of time. The 5-4-3 rule ensures this. Each segment and repeater that a signal goes through adds a small amount of time to the process, so the rule is designed to minimize transmission times of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI/TIA-568

    A cable terminated according to T568A on one end and T568B on the other is a crossover cable when used with the earlier twisted-pair Ethernet standards that use only two of the pairs because the pairs used happen to be pairs 2 and 3, the same pairs on which T568A and T568B differ. Crossover cables are occasionally needed for 10BASE-T and ...

    The original 2.94 Mbit/s Ethernet implementation had eight-bit addresses and other differences in frame format. [9] 10BASE5: 802.3-1985 (8) AUI, N, vampire tap: 500 m RG-8/U Original standard uses a single coaxial cable in which a connection is made by tapping into the single cable, drilling in to make contact with the core and the screen.

    This media system allowed multiple half-duplex Ethernet signal repeaters to be linked in series, exceeding the limit on the total number of repeaters that could be used in a given 10 Mbit/s Ethernet system. 10BASE-FB links were attached to synchronous signaling repeater hubs and used to link the hubs together in a half-duplex repeated backbone ...

  8. Physical coding sublayer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Coding_Sublayer

    The physical coding sublayer (PCS) is a networking protocol sublayer in the Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet standards. It resides at the top of the physical layer (PHY), and provides an interface between the physical medium attachment (PMA) sublayer and the media-independent interface (MII).
