Ethernet devices must allow a minimum idle period between transmission of Ethernet packets. [1] A brief recovery time between packets allows devices to prepare for reception of the next packet. While some physical layer variants literally transmit nothing during the idle period, most modern ones continue to transmit an idle pattern signal.
An Ethernet port on a laptop computer connected to a twisted pair cable with an 8P8C modular connector Symbol used by Apple and Google on some devices to denote an Ethernet connection Ethernet ( / ˈ iː θ ər n ɛ t / EE -thər-net ) is a family of wired computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), metropolitan ...
A LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridge is a network bridge that joins AppleTalk networks running on two different kinds of link – LocalTalk, the lower layers AppleTalk originally used, and Ethernet. This was an important class of products in the late 1980s and early 1990s, before Ethernet support became universal on the Mac lineup.
The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus [a] are smartphones that were developed and marketed by Apple Inc. They are the tenth generation of the iPhone.They were announced on September 7, 2016, at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco by Apple CEO Tim Cook, and were released on September 16, 2016, succeeding the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus as the flagship devices in ...
An AUI connector is a DA-15 (D-subminiature) type, where the DTE side has a female connector and the MAU side has a male connector. [1]The connector often uses a sliding clip instead of the typical thumbscrews found on D-connectors, allowing the DTE and MAU to be directly attached, even when their size or shape would not accommodate thumbscrews.
Cross section of a cat 5e cable. The Category 5e specification improves upon the Category 5 specification by further mitigating crosstalk. [9] The bandwidth (100 MHz) and physical construction are the same between the two, [10] and most Cat 5 cables actually happen to meet Cat 5e specifications even though they are not certified as such. [11]
These are referred to as MDI and MDI-X (medium-dependent interface crossover). When connecting an MDI port to an MDI-X port, a straight-through cable is used, while to connect two MDI ports or two MDI-X ports, a crossover cable must be used. Conventionally, MDI is used on end devices and routers while MDI-X is used on hubs and switches.
The role of an Ethernet switch is to forward Ethernet frames from one port to another. The presence of a FIB is one attribute that separates a switch from a hub. Without a functional FIB, all frames received by a network switch would be echoed back out to all other ports, much like an Ethernet hub.
