Introduction
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance
networks.100BASE-TX(FastEthernet)providesacost-eectiveandhigh-performancesolutionforsmallworkgroups,SMBs(SmalltoMedium
Businesses), and any network supporting bandwidth-intensive applications. Fast Ethernet technology operates at 10 times the speed of traditional
Ethernet,oeringmaximumperformanceandenhancedcapabilityforexistingEthernet-basednetworks.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a standard specied by the IEEE 802.3 LAN committee. It is an extension of the 10Mbps Ethernet standard with the ability
to transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol. Since the 100Mbps Fast Ethernet is compatible with all
other 10Mbps Ethernet environments, it provides a straightforward upgrade and takes advantage of the existing investment in hardware, software,
and personnel training.
