Fast Ethernet Switch
Device that provides a full 100 Mbps bandwidth (or either 10 or 100 Mbps
bandwidth with Auto-Negotiation) to each port (LAN segment).
Full Duplex
Transmission method that allows switch and network card to transmit and
receive concurrently, effectively doubling the bandwidth of that link.
Gigabit Ethernet
A 1000 Mbps network communication system based on Ethernet and the
CSMA/CD access method.
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.
