IEEE 802.3 is a working group and a collection of standards defining the physical layer and data link layer's media access control (MAC) of wired Ethernet.The standards are produced by the working group of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
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 detection. Deprecated 2011. 10BROAD36: 802.3b-1985 (11) F: 1800 m @VF0.87 [10] 75 Ω coaxial An early standard supporting Ethernet over longer ...
IEEE 802 is a family of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards for local area networks (LANs), personal area networks (PANs), and metropolitan area networks (MANs). The IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC) maintains these standards.
The first standard was published on September 30, 1980, as "The Ethernet, A Local Area Network. Data Link Layer and Physical Layer Specifications". This so-called DIX standard (Digital Intel Xerox) [ 18 ] specified 10 Mbit/s Ethernet, with 48-bit destination and source addresses and a global 16-bit Ethertype -type field. [ 19 ]
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 ...
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 ...
