MAC Address - The MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's
unique hardware number. 

Mbps (MegaBits Per Second) - One million bits per second; unit of measure-
ment for data transmission.

Network - A system that transmits any combination of voice, video and/or data
between users. 

NIC (Network Interface Card) - A board installed in a computer system, usu-
ally a PC, to provide network communication capabilities to and from that
computer system. Also called an adapter.

Port - A pathway into and out of the computer or a network device such as a
switch or router. For example, the serial and parallel ports on a personal com-
puter are external sockets for plugging in communications lines, modems and
printers. 
RJ-45 (Registered Jack-45) - A connector similar to a telephone connector that
holds up to eight wires, used for connecting Ethernet devices.

Throughput - The amount of data moved successfully from one place to
another in a given time period.

TX Rate - Transmission Rate.

UTP - Unshielded twisted pair is the most common kind of copper telephone
wiring. Twisted pair is the ordinary copper wire that connects home and many
business computers to the telephone company. To reduce crosstalk or electro-
magnetic induction between pairs of wires, two insulated copper wires are
twisted around each other. Each signal on twisted pair requires both wires.
Since some telephone sets or desktop locations require multiple connections,
twisted pair is sometimes installed in two or more pairs, all within a single
cable.
