GLOSSARY
8-Bit Bus –
Data is transmitted to expansion slots and other components on the bus
only along 8 parallel data line.
10Base-T –
It is a 10Mbps IEEE 802.3/Ethernet standard that uses unshielded twisted pair cable
specification. 10Base-T supports network configuration using the CSMA/CD access method over a
twisted pair transmission system up to 100 meters in length without the use of repeater.
16-Bit Bus or ISA Bus – Data is transmitted along either 8 or 16 data lines, depending
on what kind of adapter card is used in an expansion slot. ISA is the abbreviation of
Industry Standard Architecture.
100Base-TX – It is a 100Mbps IEEE 802.3/Ethernet standard that uses UTP cable. Also called Fast
Ethernet, it uses RJ-45 connectors and EIA/TIA T568B pinning. Maximum cable length from hub to
node is 100 meters without a repeater.
Adapter –
It is also called an expansion board, expansion card, or adapter card. It is a
small circuit board that is installed in the expansion slots on the motherboard. You
can install a particular adapter that connects a new device such as internal modem,
sound card, and scanner.
AGP (Accelerated Graphic Port ) –
is a 32-bit, 66MHz data bus that transmit a maximum of 528MB
of data.
bps –
Bits per second. Also often preceded by K (kilo/thousands),
Kbps
– Kilo bytes per second,
and M (mega/million), Mbps – Mega bytes per second.
BIOS (Basic Input /Output System) –
This is a chip on the motherboard that contains
the instructions for starting up, or booting, the computer, and more.
Bus –
Data that travels in a computer along the circuits on the motherboard are called
buses. Although three main buses (data bus, address bus, and control bus) manage
the computer’s operation, often these are collectively called the bus. The bus carries
instructions back and forth between the CPU and other devices in the system. ISA,
