CCNA 1 Chapter 6, Part 1Ethernet Technologies By Your Name
Objectives • 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps • 1000 Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet
10 Mbps Ethernet • 10BASE-5, 10BASE-2, and 10BASE-T Ethernet are considered Legacy Ethernet. • The four common features of Legacy Ethernet are timing parameters, frame format, transmission process, and a basic design rule.
10BASE-5 • 10BASE-5 systems also represent a single point of failure. • 10BASE-5 uses Manchester encoding. • Each of the maximum 5 segments of thick coax may be up to 500 meters in length. • The cable is large, heavy, and difficult to install.
10BASE-2 • 10BASE-2 also uses Manchester encoding. • Only 1 station can transmit at a time; otherwise a collision will occur. • It uses halfduplex. • The maximum transmission rate is 10 Mbps. • There may be up to 30 stations on any individual 10BASE-2 segment.
10BASE-T • 10BASE-T also uses Manchester encoding. • 10BASE-T uses cheaper and easier-to-install Category 3 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) copper cable rather than coax cable. • Halfduplex or fullduplex is a configuration choice. • 10BASE-T carries 10 Mbps of traffic in half-duplex mode and 20 Mbps in full-duplex mode.
10BASE-T Wiring and Architecture • 10BASE-T links generally consist of a connection between the station and a hub or switch.
100 Mbps • 100 Mbps Ethernet is also known as Fast Ethernet. • The two technologies that became important are 100BASE-TX, which is copper UTP based, and 100BASE-FX, which is multimode optical fiber based.
1000BASE-TX • 100BASE-TX uses 4B/5B encoding, which is then scrambled and converted to multilevel transmit-3 levels or MLT-3.
1000BASE-FX • A fiber version desired for backbone applications as well as connections between floors and buildings where copper is less desirable, and also in high noise environments
1000 Mbps Ethernet • The 1000 Mbps Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet standards represent transmission using both fiber and copper media. • The 1000BASE-X standard (IEEE 802.3z) specifies a 1-Gbps fullduplex over optical fiber. • The 1000BASE-T standard (IEEE 802.3ab) uses a media of Category 5 or higher UTP. • 1000BASE-TX, 1000BASE-SX, and 1000BASE-LX use the same timing parameters.
1000BASE-T • 1000BASE-T standard is interoperable with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. • 1000BASE-T uses all 4 pairs of wires instead of the traditional 2 pairs of wires used by 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. • This provides 250 Mbps per pair. With all 4 wire pairs, this provides the desired 1000 Mbps.
Gigabit Ethernet Architecture • Daisy-chaining, star, and extended star topologies are all allowed. • It is recommended that all links between a station and a hub or switch be configured for autonegotiation to permit the highest common performance.
10Gigabit Ethernet • IEEE 802.3ae was adapted to include 10-Gbps full-duplex transmission over fiber-optic cable. • When using single-mode fiber as the transmission medium, the maximum transmission distance is 40 kilometers (25 miles). • Some discussions between IEEE members have begun that suggest the possibility of standards for 40-, 80-, and even 100-Gbps Ethernet.
10Gigabit Ethernet Architectures • 10 Gigabit Ethernet uses two separate encoding steps. • The encoded data provides synchronization, efficient usage of bandwidth, and improved signal-to-noise ratio characteristics. • All 10GbE varieties use optical fiber media.
Future of Ethernet • Ethernet has gone through an evolution from Legacy → Fast → Gigabit → MultiGigabit technologies. • The future of networking media is threefold: • Copper (up to 1000 Mbps, perhaps more) • Wireless (approaching 100 Mbps, perhaps more) • Optical fiber (currently at 10,000 Mbps and soon to be more)
