1-2 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
For example, the 3C319 NIC begins writing the first
portion of a data frame to the network before it has
completed reading it from PC memory.
Full-Duplex/Dedicated Token Ring Support
Full-duplex/Dedicated Token Ring (DTR) is an
enhancement to the IEEE 802.5 standard that allows
a 16 Mbps switch port to be dedicated to a station.
In full-duplex mode, a station can simultaneously
transmit and receive independent data streams for
potential data throughput of 32 Mbps. The 3C319 NIC
operates in full-duplex mode when attached to a
DTR switch.
