ETHERNET CABLING

by Brant Schroeder

Part: 1 2 3

This page was a lot more demanding then the last few I have created. I usually have a better idea about the topics that I research. Ethernet cabling I happen to know little about because I helped set up a school lab about five years ago. That was the only time that I have ever worked with an Ethernet system. To tell you the truth, I was not even that much of an intricate part of the whole program. Iım sure that it would have all been cabled, networked, and set up just fine without my help. In fact, I bet it would have been faster if I had not been around to get in the way.

I decided that I better review what Ethernet cabling was all about. This page contains links to some informative sites that can help you learn more about Ethernet cabling. These sites can help you set up a basic Ethernet network in your home or office. They even will take you into more advance and faster Ethernet connection setups. If you are already an expert, it also contains a few product links. These links contain the hardware as well as the software needed for a great Ethernet network.



Tutorials and Information About Ethernet Cabling
Charles Spurgeon's Ethernet Web Site

I found this site on the University of Texas web page. It's well done, easy to follow, and has lots of great links. This page is by far the best page I was able to find on this topic. Check out the main page. The author of this page provides:

• extensive information about Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) local area network (LAN) technology, including the original 10-Mbps system, the 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet system (802.3 µ), the 1000-Mbps Gigabit Ethernet system (802.3z/802.3ab), and the 10-Gb Ethernet system (802.3ae).

•the Quick Reference Guides to 10 Mbps Ethernet, which includes a complete set of configuration guidelines for the 10-Mbps half-duplex mode Ethernet system.

• the Quick Reference Guides to 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, which includes a complete set of configuration guidelines for the 100 Mbps half-duplex mode Ethernet system.

• the Multi-Segment Configuration Guidelines from "Ethernet, The Definitive Guide," which provides a complete set of 10-, 100-, and 1000-Mbps Ethernet half-duplex configuration rules in a single chapter.




I am always looking for more material about interesting subjects. If you would like to share information about robotics or see a Resource Page on a particular topic, contact me,
