Glossary Ethernet A network communication system developed and standardized by DEC, Intel, and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE 802.3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and implementations that operate on fiber, thin coax and twisted-pair cable. Fast Ethernet A 100 Mbps network communication system based on Ethernet and the CSMA/CD access method. Gigabit Ethernet A 1000 Mbps network communication system based on Ethernet and the CSMA/CD access method. Full Duplex Transmission method that allows two network devices to transmit and receive concurrently, effectively doubling the bandwidth of that link. IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers. IEEE 802.3 Defines carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) access method and physical layer specifications. IEEE 802.3ab Defines CSMA/CD access method and physical layer specifications for 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet. IEEE 802.3u Defines CSMA/CD access method and physical layer specifications for 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet. IEEE 802.3x Defines Ethernet frame start/stop requests and timers used for flow control on full-duplex links. IEEE 802.3z Defines CSMA/CD access method and physical layer specifications for 1000BASE Gigabit Ethernet. LAN Segment Separate LAN or collision domain.
