Ethernet
still used for today's networks and defines all of the issues involved with data transfer between computer systems
Original Ethernet used was a single piece of coaxial cable in a bus topology that connected to several computers allowing them to preform data transfers but at the rate of 3Mbps ( very very slow compared to what we have now.
All networks break data transmitted between computers into smaller pieces called frames this prevents a single machine from monopolizing the shared bus cables.
using small frames on a computer allows you to share a cable easily. Each computer listens to a segment this sends a few frames of data when it catches no other computer transmitting.
Bus Ethernet
-
-
T connector enables the bus to carry one electrical signal that connects every device onto the network.
-
10BaseT
-
biggest difference between hubs is # of ports. a small hub may only have 4 ports but a big network could have 48.
-
-
few years later a fiber optic version came a few years after called 10BaseFL that uses Multi mode ( uses a SC or ST connector )
1979 Xerox decides to look for parts to promote Ethernet to be an industry standard. Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) and intel partnered up with them ( known as Digital-Intel-Xerox ( DIX) .
The companies soon transferred control of Ethernet to IEEE which created 802.3 ( Ethernet ) ( we still use this today )
-
Preamble
All Ethernet frames begin with a preamble ( 7 byte series of alternating ones and zeros followed by a 1byte start Frame.
Mac Address
Every single NIC ( also referred to as a node) on an Ethernet network needs a special identifying address that is unique
-
When a computer sends out a data frame, goes into the hub and the hub repeats an exact copy of that frame to every connected port .
