EXITEN CUATRO TIPOS DE ETHERNET
10BaseT
One of the most common types of Ethernet in use today is 10BaseT. This particular implementation uses four-pair UTP wiring (Cat3 or higher, but most commonly you will see Cat5) using RJ-45 connectors. Each cable is connected from each network device to a central hub in a physical star topology. Within the hub, the signals are repeated and forwarded to all other nodes on the network because it is a logical bus topology. Older network interface cards are configured with jumpers to set addresses and interrupts.
Today's network interface cards can be managed through a diagnostic program, or automatically configure themselves through plug and play technology. …ver más…

For 10Base5, the following rules apply: First the 5-4-3 rule applies to ThickNet just as it did to ThinNet. In addition, the minimum cable distance between each transceiver is 2.5 meters. The maximum network segment length is 500 meters, which is where 10Base5 gets the "5" in its name. The entire set of five segments cannot exceed 2,500 meters. You can have 100 devices on a 10Base5 network segment.
100BaseFX
100BaseFX is simply Fast Ethernet over fiber. Originally, the specification was known as 100Base-X over CDDI (Copper Data Digital Interface) or FDDI (Fiber Data Digital Interface). Because the signaling is so vastly different, these two technologies were split into 100BaseFX and 100BaseTX. 100BaseFX runs over multimode fiber. There are two types of fiber in use. Multimode fiber optic cables use LEDs to transmit data and are thick enough that the light signals bounce off the walls of the fiber. The dispersion of the signal limits the length of multimode fiber. Single mode fiber optic cables use injected lasers to transmit the data along fiber optic cable with an extremely small diameter. Because the laser signal can travel straight without bouncing and dispersing, the signal can travel much farther than multimode.
100BaseT4
100BaseT4 was the specification created to upgrade 10BaseT networks over Cat3 wiring to 100 Mbps without having to replace the wiring. Using four pairs of twisted pair wiring, two of the four pairs are configured for
