10Base-T:
Name of the data transmission standard at the rate of 10 Mbit/s
over Ethernet network, using twisted pair cable.
100Base-T (100Base-TX):
Name of the data transmission standard at the rate of 100 Mbit/s
over Ethernet network, using twisted pair cable.
1000Base-T:
Name of the data transmission standard at the rate of 100o Mbit/s
(1 Gbit/s) over Ethernet network, using twisted pair cable.
Back-to-back:
Data transmission unevenness. A test that determines quantity of
frames in the longest transmission, that does not result in DUT loss
of any frame.
ARP: Address Resolution Protocol . A network protocol that converts
IP addresses (network level addresses) to MAC addresses (link level
addresses) in TCP/IP networks. It is defined in RFC 826.
Auto-Negotiation:
the auto-negotiation function allows devices (adapters and hubs) to
automatically adjust to the communication rate in the network.
DUT: Device Under Test .
Ethernet:
Local area networks implementation technology. Is defined in IEEE
standard, group 802.3.
FTP: File Transfer Protocol . A protocol that supports file transmission
in computer networks.
Full-duplex:
Duplex mode. A mode that supports data transmission and recep-
tion at the same time.
Half-duplex:
Semi-duplex mode. A mode that supports transmission in both di-
rections, but with separation in time, i.e. at any moment of time
transmission is performed in only one direction.
