Question

What is the value of the resistance with which the 10baset is terminated by?

Answer 1

In electronics, electrical termination is the practice of ending a transmission line with a device that matches the characteristic impedance of the line. This is intended to prevent signals from reflecting off the end of the transmission line. Reflections at the ends of unterminated transmission lines cause distortion which can produce ambiguous digital signal levels and mis-operation of digital systems. Reflections in analog signalsystems cause such effects as video ghosting, or power loss in radio transmitter transmission lines.
