10-Mbps Ethernet, 100-Mbps or Fast Ethernet, and 1000-Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet.
100 Mbps. There are several speeds for Ethernet; the term "Fast Ethernet" is used for the 100 Mbps variety.

· What sort of cabling is suitable for Fast Ethernet protocols?
Fast Ethernet runs at 100Mbit and requires CAT5e cables. Gigabit Ethernet is 1,000Mbit and requires CAT6 cables
(From: Jean Andrews CompTIA A+ 6th Edition pg. 846) The three variations of Ethernet are primarily distinguished from one another by speed: (1) 10-Mbps Ethernet, (2) 100-Mbps or Fast Ethernet, and (3) 1000-Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet.
Ethernet cabling is cheap and fast enough for most purposes.
Fast Ethernet is 10 times faster than 10BaseT, so 45 seconds.
Ethernet is the most popular networking technology used in LANs. Fast Ethernet is used to refer to any version of Ethernet that meets or surpasses the 100 Mbps transfer speed.
It is used to connect Fast Ethernet Networks together and it is connected to a PCI Slot located on your computer's Motherboard
