Modern Ethernet > 10 Mbps Examples: Fast Ethernet: 100 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet: 1000 Mbps 10 Gigabit Ethernet: 10,000 Mbps
Fast Ethernet 100 Mbps Also known as 100Base Ethernet Includes: 100BaseTX 100BaseT4 (disappeared) 100BaseFX
100BaseTX versus 100BaseT4 versus 100BaseFX Similarities: Star-Bus technology CSMA/CD Ethernet frame 100 Mbps Baseband Differences: 100BaseTX uses UTP cable, two pairs, CAT5 or higher, maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 100 meters 100BaseT4 uses UTP cable, four pairs, CAT3 or higher, maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 100 meters 100BaseFX uses multimodefiber optic cable, maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 2000 meters, no EMI, no wire tap (more secured)
Gigabit Ethernet 1000BaseX 1000Mbps (1 Gbps) 1000BaseT: Four pairs of CAT5 or better UTP cable Maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 100 meters
Gigabit Ethernet 1000BaseSX: Multimode fiber optic cables Maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 220-500 meters 1000BaseLX: Singlemodefiber optic cables Maximum length of cable from a node to a hub: 5000 meters S = short reach L = long reach
10Gigabit Ethernet 10GBaseSR/SW Multimode fiber optic cable 26-300 meters 10GBaseLR/LW Singlemodefiber optic cable 10,000 meters 10GBaseER/EW Singlemodefiber optic cable 40,000 meters E = extended reach
10Gigabit Ethernet 10GBaseT Four pair, CAT 6/6a UTP cable CAT 6 = 55 meters max. CAT 6a = 100 meters max. R: LAN W: designed to interoperate with SONET equipment using a light-weight SDH/SONET frame
10/100BaseT Devices 10/100BaseT Devices: Networking devices (e.g., NIC, hub, UTP cable) that can work in BOTH 10BaseT and 100BaseT networks What are 10/100/1000BaseT Devices? What is 10/100/1000BaseT Switch? What is 10/100/1000BaseT NIC?
Multispeed Switch To break a network into multiple segments that have different data transmission speed (throughputs) High-traffic segment (e.g., backbone) has high data transmission speed technology, low-traffic segment has low data transmission speed technology, in order not to waste resources (max performance & min cost) Backbone A segment that connects other segments (a switch that connects other switches)
Multispeed Switch 10Base (10 Mbps) segment 100Base (100 Mbps) segment

Full-Duplex Ethernet Normally, Ethernet works in HALF-DUPLEX mode: One frame can travel over the network at any time Ethernet switch and Ethernet NICs that can run in Full-Duplex mode enable Ethernet network to run in a FULL-DUPLEX mode At any time, multiple computers can send frames to the network (in other words, multiple frames can travel over the network at any time) By running in a Full-Duplex mode, the network operates more efficiently by minimizing the waiting time and removing the possibility of collision By running in a Full Duplex mode, the data transmission rate can be twice as fastas the one in a Half Duplex mode

Full-Duplex Switch • 10/100BaseT switch: • http://www.superwarehouse.com/Linksys_Etherfast_10_100_8_Port_Auto-Sensing_Switch/EZXS88W/ps/117963 • Check the “Features” of this switch. One of them indicates that this switch can run at 10, 20, 100, 200 Mbps. Explain how this 10/100BaseT switch can run at 20 and 200 Mbps
