100 is the speed. 100Mbps
The current standard is 802.11n which is 160 Mbps is faster than Fast Ethernet 100Mbps
10baseT - 10Mbps 100BaseT - 100Mbps GigE - 1000Mbps or 1Gbps 10GigE - 10000Mbps or 10Gbps
Ethernet is the international standard networking technology for wired implementations. In other words, Local Area Network (LAN).
Gigabit Ethernet almost always runs in full-duplex mode
1) 100Base-TX 2) 100Base-FX
cat 6 is always a regiment cable usually gigabit ethernet, it is backward compatible.Cat 5 usually can handle 10/100Mbps which is a fast ethernet.
Ethernet is an alternative way of connecting to the internet when given wireless connection. It offers speeds of up to 10Mbps and four hubs can be cascaded between two stations. On the contrary, fast Ethernet has reduced number of hubs and offers speeds of up to 100Mbps.
The term that best describes an Ethernet system operating at 100 Mbps is "Fast Ethernet." Fast Ethernet is a standard that allows for data transmission at 100 megabits per second, typically using twisted pair cabling (like Category 5) or fiber optics. It was widely adopted in the late 1990s and serves as an upgrade from the original 10 Mbps Ethernet.
100mbps is much faster.
The IEEE 802.3 standard governs Ethernet networks, specifying the maximum length of cable segments and the number of devices that can be connected. For traditional 10BASE2 (Thin Ethernet), the cable segment length is limited to 185 meters with a maximum of 30 devices. For 10BASE5 (Thick Ethernet), the cable can be up to 500 meters, but the total number of devices is typically similar. Ethernet standards have evolved, with modern implementations like 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T using twisted pair cabling and allowing for different configurations.
