Fast Ethernet
Fast Ethernet (also known as IEEE 802.3u or
100BASE-T) is quickly becoming the successor
to Ethernet as the network topology of choice.
Fast Ethernet can operate at ten times the
speed of Ethernet, and in many cases, the
existing twisted pair cable (10BASE-T, or
Token Ring) can be used in the migration to
Fast Ethernet.
The importance of Fast Ethernet is becoming
clearer each day. So too are its benefits. Fast
Ethernet can deliver next generation perfor-
mance and compatibility for traditional
Ethernet networks with reasonable installa-
tion and implementation costs.
While Fast Ethernet’s momentum and benefits
may be clear, there are still many networking
professionals who have questions about imple-
menting Fast Ethernet—particularly about
what type of cables to use.
Ethernet
The term Ethernet refers to the family of local-area network (LAN) products covered by the IEEE 802.3 standard that defines what is commonly known as the CSMA/CD protocol. Three data rates are currently defined for operation over optical fiber and twisted-pair cables:
10 Mbps-10Base-T Ethernet100 Mbps-Fast Ethernet1000 Mbps-Gigabit Ethernet
10-Gigabit Ethernet is under development and will likely be published as the IEEE 802.3ae supplement to the IEEE 802.3 base standard in late 2001 or early 2002.
Other technologies and protocols have been touted as likely replacements, but the market has spoken. Ethernet has survived as the major LAN technology (it is currently used for approximately 85 percent of the world's LAN-connected PCs and workstations) because its protocol has the following characteristics:
Is easy to understand, implement, manage, and maintainAllows low-cost network implementationsProvides extensive topological flexibility for network installationGuarantees successful interconnection and operation of standards-compliant products, regardless of manufacturer
