What is Ethernet?

The term Ethernet refers to the family of networking technologies for local area network LANs. It is the dominant wired LAN technology.  Systems communicating over Ethernet divide a data stream into shorter frames, with each frame containing source and destination addresses. These segment also contains error checking data for damaged data detection and retransmission. Ethernet standards comprise several wiring variants and the technologies data rates have gradually increased. The most common forms of Ethernet technology are 10BASE-T Running at 10Mbit/s, 100 Base-TX with Speeds of  100Mbit/s, and 1000BASE-T which runs at 1 Gbit/s. Each of these forms can utilize twisted pair cables and 8P8C modular Connectors.

Ethernet Cables Network Connections
Ethernet interface is include coaxial, twisted pair, and fibre optic cables. Ethernet cables connect a computer to another computer, a local network, or cable modem. Ethernet twisted pair cables are categorised according to industries standards, search as Cat5e and category 6. the fibre optic ethernet cable can offer superior performance over twisted pair connections. Ethernet cables are available in solid core or stranded options. solid Ethernet network cable are designed for performance and interference protection. while stranded cables constructed for flexibility and convenience.

Cat5e Patch Cables for Residential and Commercial Applications
A Cat5e Patch cable is commonly used to connect network devices and provide wired internet access. These Patch cable links a computer to networks switch, hub, or router. In comparison of crossover Ethernet cable is used to connect two computers directly without using additional components. The run length for an Ethernet cable is 100 metres, but Ethernet networks can be extended it for commercial applications through network bridges.
