    Switched, Fast, and Gigabit Ethernet - CH 3 - Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethern.. Page 1 of 36 [Figures are not included in this sample chapter] Switched, Fast, and Gigabit Ethernet - 3 - Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet Standards This chapter discusses the theory and standards of the three versions of Ethernet around today: regular 10Mbps Ethernet, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, and 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet. The goal of this chapter is to educate you as a LAN manager or IT professional about essential differences between shared 10Mbps Ethernet and these newer technologies. This chapter focuses on aspects of Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet that are relevant to you and doesn’t get into too much technical detail. Read this chapter and the following two (Chapter 4, "Layer 2 Ethernet Switching," and Chapter 5, "VLANs and Layer 3 Switching") together. This chapter focuses on the different Ethernet MAC and PHY standards, as well as repeaters, also known as hubs. Chapter 4 examines Ethernet bridging, also known as Layer 2 switching. Chapter 5 discusses VLANs, some basics of routing, and Layer 3 switching. These three chapters serve as a precursor to the second half of this book, namely the hands-on implementation in Chapters 8 through 12. After you understand the key differences between yesterday’s shared Ethernet and today’s Switched, Fast, and Gigabit Ethernet, evaluating products and building a network with these products should be relatively straightforward. The chapter is split into seven sections: l "Ethernet and the OSI Reference Model" discusses the OSI Reference Model and how Ethernet relates to the physical (PHY) and Media Access Control (MAC) layers of the OSI model.

In the mid- 1980s, IBM unveiled a competing network technology called Token Ring. You’ll get the complete discussion of Token Ring in the next chapter, but it’s enough for now to say that Token Ring used a physical star topology.

  • Physical Layer Standards
    ELEC3030 (EL336) Computer Networks S Chen Physical Layer Standards • Physical layer: concern with transmission of raw bit stream over physical medium • A physical layer “protocol” or standard deals with mechanical, electrical and procedural characteristics to access physical medium • Parts of a physical layer are completely related to the medium and others are independent of the medium → useful thinking physical layer as two sublayers – “Medium dependent sublayer”: specifies the medium, physical connectors, related mechanical and electrical characteristics – “Medium independent sublayer”: covers line coding – how to transmit 0 and 1 bits; synchronisation – sender and receiver clocks must be synchronised to know the start/end of a bit, usually by organising block of bits into a frame; other issues not directly linked to the medium Do not confuse layer-1 framing with framing in layer-2: It is really concerned with how to reliably transmit bit stream (timing), while layer-2 framing includes some other higher functional purposes 25 ELEC3030 (EL336) Computer Networks S Chen IEEE 802.3 Ethernet • A bus LAN, “medium dependent” part of physical layer specifies things related to the medium: Controller name (a) 10Base5 (b) 10Base2 (c) 10Base-T Controller Twisted pair Transceiver medium thick coax cable thin coax cable twisted pair Transceiver + controller cable max. length 500 m 200 m 100 m Core Vampire tap nodes 100 30 1024 data rate 10 Mbps 10 Mbps 10 Mbps Transceiver Connector Hub (a) (b) (c) • “Medium independent”: the Manchester encoding is
