10-Mbps Ethernet
• Three 10-Mbps Ethernet standards:
– 10BASE5
– 10BASE2
– 10BASE-T
• 10BASE2 and 10BASE5 were around more
than 20 years and have been replaced by
newer alternatives
• 10BASE-T’s use is declining, but it is still
used it some networks
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
10-Mbps Ethernet
• 10-Mbps Ethernet standards cover all
of IEEE 802.3 OSI physical layer
(Layer 1) standards and the lower
half of the OSI Layer 2 (the MAC
sublayer)
• IEEE 802.3 Logical Link Control (LLC)
defines the upper sublayer of OSI
Layer 2 for Ethernet
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
10-Mbps Ethernet
• 10BASE5, 10BASE2, and 10BASE-T all
use different physical layer
specifications
• All three types share the same
settings for timing-related features
• There are also three types of frames
allowed on an Ethernet network
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
10BASE-T Wiring
• Supports Categories 3, 5, and 5e
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling
• Works better with Cat5 than Cat3
• Current installations of cabling are at
least Cat5e which will allow support
of Gigabit Ethernet
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
10BASE-T Wiring
• Straight-through cables are used to
connect a NIC to a hub
• The NIC’s transmit pins (1 and 2) are
connected to the hub’s receive pins
(1 and 2)
• The NIC’s receive pins (3 and 6) are
connected to the hub’s transmit pins
(3 and 6)

10BASE-T Wiring
• Hubs and switches are often
connected together to forward data
• This type of connection requires a
crossover cable
• The same cable can be used to
connect two PCs directly without
using a hub or switch
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
100-Mbps Ethernet
• In the 1990s, use of 10BASE-T LANs
grew rapidly (cheaper to install)
• The Internet grew quickly, about 10%
per month
• Eventually, 10Mpbs to the desktop
was not fast enough
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
100BASE-FX
• Can run longer distances than
100BASE-TX
• Often used between buildings on a
campus
• 100 Mbps speed
• Fiber Distributed Data Interface
(FDDI) was also popular

100BASE-FX
• Asynchronous Transfer mode (ATM)
became popular in the mid-1990s
– Took place of FDDI equipment
– Equipment overhead caused some
inefficiencies
• 100BASE-FX allowed similar cabling
distances and speeds as FDDI, overcame
some of the inefficiencies
10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet
100BASE-FX
• 100BASE-FX was not as popular as
100BASE-TX because:
– Not enough benefit seen in replacing existing
FDDI backbones
– ATM allowed higher transfer speeds (155 or
622 Mbps)
– Introduction of Gigabit Ethernet ended need for
it
Gigabit Ethernet and
Beyond
• Gigabit Ethernet runs at 1 Gigabit
per second (Gbps), which is 1000
Mbps
• Often called “GigE”
• Originally the IEEE 802.3z standard
that uses fiber
• Now available over UTP – IEEE
802.3ab
• Uses same framing as other Ethernet

1000BASE-X
• Refers to three separate Gigabit
Ethernet standards, all of which use
fiber-optic cabling
• Two popular commercial versions:
– 1000BASE-SX (short distances)
– 1000BASE-LX (long distances)

1000BASE-X Advantages Versus
1000BASE-T with Copper Cabling
• Noise immunity, because fiber-optic cabling is not
susceptible to interference from nearby radiation
• Because 1000BASE-X is not electrical, no
grounding problems exist
• Provides various options for different types of
cabling, connectors and price points
• Cabling distance allows a more widely dispersed
Ethernet LAN

Backbone with Two 1000BASE-X Links

Backbone Links
• With 1000BASE-X, longer backbone links
can be built than with ATM
• Up to eight parallel 1000BASE-X links
could be used between switches in a
single Gigabit EtherChannel
• Most backbone links have at least two
parallel channels for redundancy

Gigabit Ethernet Connectors
• Both 1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX use
two fiber strands – one to communicate in
each direction
• The concept is similar to using pairs of
copper wires in copper cabling
• The connectors are typically either SC or
MT-RJ connectors

Backbone Links
• The small circles at the end of each
connector represent the end of the actual
fibers
• The transmitter on one end must connect
to the detector on the other end
• Every fiber optical cable essentially acts
like a crossover cable

1000BASE-T
• Development of Gigabit over copper required
much more engineering work than Gigabit over
fiber
• 1000BASE-T uses Cat5e cabling (Cat5 cable can
be re-terminated and made to pass the Cat5e
standard without replacing the cable)
• 2 bits (called a symbol) are sent at a time
• All four pairs of wires are used, with each pair
transmitting twice as many bits per second as
100BASE-TX, which gives 4 x 250 Mbps = 1 Gps
• Each wire pair can simultaneously send and
receive!

1000BASE-T
• If a NIC sends a frame and begins to send
one at the same time, a collision is
assumed
• Gigabit Ethernet does not use CSMA/CD or
half duplex by choice - to do so, Gigabit
hubs would be needed and none are made
• Gigabit switches are used instead of hubs
• Ethernet standards faster than Gigabit do
not support CSMA/CD and half duplex

Future of Ethernet
• Next step is migration of the desktop to 1
Gbps
• Many LAN installations already run
multiple 1-Gbps links as an EtherChannel
between switches

• IEEE 802.3ae standard allows links up to
40 kilometers, allowing Ethernet MAN
