Standards Organizations

∙American National Standards Institute (ANSI)—This organization coordinates many specialized standards organizations and technical committees. ANSI’s Web site can be found at http://www.ansi.org/.

∙Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA)—This is the parent organization for a number of standards groups, including the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA). TIA/EIA standards relate mostly to cabling. The TIA members are providers of communications and information technology products and services. The TIA/EIA Web site can be found at http://www.tiaonline.org/.

∙Gigabit Ethernet Alliance—This group was formed to promote industry cooperation in developing Gigabit Ethernet. You can find this group’s Web site at http://www.gigabit−ethernet.org/.

∙High Speed Token Ring Alliance—This group was formed by Token Ring vendors to establish high−speed solutions for Token Ring. Their Web site can be found at http://www.hstra.com/.

∙Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)—This standards organization creates and publishes standards related to electronic technologies. It is best known for its 802 committee, which has produced a series of standards documents that describe LAN protocols and physical transmission topology standards. The IEEE’s Web site can be found at http://www.ieee.org/.

∙International Organization for Standardization (ISO)—This organization is best known for the Open System Interconnection (OSI) Model. It creates and publishes standards that cover a wide range of topics. The ISO Web site can be found at http://www.iso.ch/.

∙International Telecommunications Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU−T)—This organization is responsible for the networking standards relating to Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). The ITU−T Web site can be found at http://www.itu.int/.
