Glossary
1 0 B a s e T LAN media standard that defines 10Mbps baseband Ethernet over
unshielded twisted pair wiring.
address The unique identifier for a network device.
AUI Attachment Unit Interface.
A M S Asanté Management System.
AsantéHub A compact, powerful LAN hub that lets you create high-speed
Ethernet networks over ordinary, unshielded twisted-pair (UTP)
telephone wire. The AsantéHub 1012 offers complete flexibility in
LAN wiring.
A s a n t é N e t The family name for all of Asanté Technology, Inc.'s networking
products. A registered trademark of Asanté Technology, Inc.
auto-sensing AsantéHub 1012 capability to sense physical links present on the
3-in-1 ports (hub uplinks).
backbone The major interconnecting bus in a network. Provides
interconnection among subnetworks.
A network topology in which devices are connected to a single linear
length of wire. (See tree network.)
bandwidth The capacity of a network to transmit information. The unit of
measure used may be bps (bits per second), or baud. The higher the
bandwidth, the greater the information-carrying capacity of the
network, and the faster the same data can be transmitted from one
device to another.
baseband Data transmission at a single digital signaling rate over coaxial cable or
twisted-pair wiring.
BNC connector A type of connector used for thin coaxial cable connection.
bridge A device that connects networks at the data link control level. The
bridge implements the connection between two local area networks
at the physical and data link layers (layers 1 and 2 of the OSI model).
broadband The transmission of multiple analog signals at the same time over the
same wires.
