It will be offcourse 10 MB/s ,10 Base-T runs over four wires (two twisted pairs) on a category 3 or category 5 cable. Star topology with an active Hub or switch sits in the middle and has a port for each node. This is also the configuration used for 100BASE-T and gigabit Ethernet. Manchester coded signaling.1000BASE T use four wires unlike 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX ,those max speed are valid up to 100 m cable distance.
In "100Base-TX," the "Base" refers to baseband signaling, which means that the medium transmits digital signals directly without modulation onto a carrier signal. This is in contrast to broadband systems, which use multiple channels over a single medium. The "100" indicates a maximum data rate of 100 megabits per second, while "TX" specifies the use of twisted-pair cabling, typically Category 5 or higher.
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.
