What else can I help you with?
Max speed of coax?
Coax cable is OK for R.F. up to several gigahertz, over medium to short runs. For data, we went to twisted-pair with 100 megabit Ethernet, and twisted-pair is now used in 10 gigabit Ethernet. So... using Nyquist, you can probably use coax cable up to gigabit speeds over medium-short distances, but I'm not aware of anyone doing it. Maybe try a google search.
Which port is used to connect your computer to a network?
The "Ethernet Port" Obviously is used for the Ethernet cable which often connects computers to a router. A router is a device that gets the Internet or from the phone/Internet port and routes it to your computer routers are required for ADSL and ADSL2+ to work. Oftener more than one computer is connected to the router. But this setup may be different for "Cable Internet because i have never had cable.
What connector is used to terminate Ethernet unshielded twisted pair UTP cabling?
The connector used to terminate Ethernet cables is called an RJ-45 connector. They are the clear plastic connectors you see at either end of an Ethernet cable.
What about T1 Cable?
A T1 Cable is the same as an Straighat Through Ethernet cable. Pins used for a T1 are 1,2,4,5 Pins used for Ethernet are 1,2,3,6 www.intelletrace.com
Can CAT5 wire be used to supply power?
Yes. A Cat-5 line can be used to supply power to certain Ethernet Switches that support POE, or Power Over Ethernet.
Why used gigabit Ethernet lan?
You would use gigabit ethernet in a LAN where you want speed; otherwise, most LANs run at 100 megabits per second, which is considerably slower.
What is gigabit in relation to Ethernet?
Gigabit in relation to Ethernet refers to the data transfer rate of 1 gigabit per second (Gbps), which is equivalent to 1,000 megabits per second (Mbps). This speed is commonly associated with Gigabit Ethernet standards, such as 1000BASE-T, which enable high-speed data transmission over twisted-pair cables. Gigabit Ethernet is widely used in local area networks (LANs) to support bandwidth-intensive applications and improve overall network performance.
What is the capacity of Ethernet?
Ethernet capacity varies depending on the standard used. The most common Ethernet standards include Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps), 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 Gbps), and newer standards like 100 Gigabit Ethernet and beyond. Modern Ethernet technologies can support speeds up to 400 Gbps and even 800 Gbps in specialized applications. The capacity also depends on factors like cable type, network design, and distance.
What is a Cisco 24 port gigabit switch used for?
It is not a complete necessity to have a gigabit Ethernet switch but it will increase processing speed to 1,000 Mbits per second. Earlier forms of the Ethernet switches were in the 10 to 100 megabit range.
What operating system should be used in gigaethernet?
Gigabit Ethernet can be used by all major modern operating systems.
What is GBIC?
GBIC is an abbreviation for gigabit interface converter. This is a device that was introduced in the 2000s and is commonly used with a Ethernet channel.
Why are there 8 wires in an Ethernet cable?
In Cat 5 cable based on fast ethernet (100 mbsp) 4 are used to Send and Receive. The other 4 wires are unused. All 8 wires are used for gigabit communications.
Differences between Ethernet Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet?
The 'Ether' part of Ethernet denotes that the system is not meant to be restricted for use on only one medium type, copper cables, fibre cables and even radio waves can be used. Fast Ethernet Network was developed as an upgrade to traditional Ethernet Networking. Fast Ethernet improved traditional Ethernet by increasing transfer rates 10 times, from 10 Megabit to 100 Megabit speed. Gigabit Ethernet Network is an upgrade on Fast Ethernet Network equivalent to Fast Ethernet Networks improvement over Fast Ethernet Network, offering speeds of 1000 Megabits (1 Gigabit) Cisco have a good document with diagrams and a reasonable amount of depth that answers your questions on 10/100/1000 Ethernet. See related link. Ethernet card would be 10Mbps (mega bauds per second) Fast Ethernet card would be 100Mbps. Most ethernet cards sold today are Fast Ethernet or better. Look for the 100Mbps or the 10/100Mbps specification. The only difference between the both is the speed. Hence both cards are basically the same using the same technology except the fast Ethernet card can run on 10/100mb/s, an astonishing speed. Original 10Base2, 10Base5 and 10baseT Ethernet (thin coaxial cable, thick coaxial cable and twisted pair, respectively) specifications offered a 10Mbit/second throughput (data transfer rate). Although 1 Byte is 8 bits, 10Mbits in practice doesn't mean 1.25MBytes/second, because there's some extra information transferred. On average it can be seen as a ~1MByte/second link speed. Then new standards appeared, some of them exotic (like 100VG AnyLan), but the new Ethernet standard was 100baseTX, which used twisted pair (like 10baseT, but with slightly higher quality requirements - Category 5 cable). It has been called Fast Ethernet, as it offered 100Mbit/sec transfer speed, a 10-fold improvement. Usually all the network equipment can talk both 10baseT and 100baseTX (for example network switches have "10/100" ports). But this was not enough - then came a next speed-up: the 1000baseTX, still running on twisted pair, but with even higher cable quality requirements, offering 1000Mbit/s transfer speed, thus called Gigabit Ethernet: 1000 Mega = 1 Giga.
Fast Ethernet runs at what speed?
100 Mbps. There are several speeds for Ethernet; the term "Fast Ethernet" is used for the 100 Mbps variety.
What is giga lan card?
A Gigabit LAN card, or Gigabit Ethernet card, is a network interface card (NIC) that enables computers to connect to a local area network (LAN) at speeds up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). This technology significantly enhances data transfer rates compared to traditional Fast Ethernet cards, which operate at 100 megabits per second (Mbps). Gigabit LAN cards are commonly used in modern computers and networking equipment to support high-speed internet and data transfer requirements. They typically use an RJ-45 connector and are compatible with various networking standards.
Which categories of UTP cabling can be used in Gigabit Ethernet networks?
According to the Certblaster 2009 Comptia A+ CD practice exam the answer is Cat 6 cablingCat5E can also be used and is in use more than the expensive and hard to work with CAT6.
What is a gigabit hub used for?
A gigabit hub is used to store and protect information and files through copying and safe keeping. A gigabit hub plugs into the computer and works through that.
