Short Frame

A frame less than the minimum legal size (less than 64 bytes) with a good frame check sequence. In general, you should not see Short Frames. The mostly likely cause of a Short Frame is a faulty adapter card or driver.

Signal/Noise Ratio

The ratio of worst-case received signal level to noise level measured at the receiver input (expressed in dB). The S/N ratio may be expressed as NEXT(dB) - Attenuation(dB), provided idle channel background noise is low. Higher S/N ratios provide better channel performance.

SNAP (Subnetwork Access Protocol)

An IP protocol that is an extended version of the IEEE LAN logical link control (LLC) frame. SNAP provides access to additional protocols and allows vendors to create their own protocol sub-types.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Designed by the Department of Defense and commercial TCP/IP implementors, SNMP is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. SNMP operates on top of the Internet Protocol and can manage virtually any network type.

Source Address

The address of the station originating a frame.

Split Pair

The error of using wires from two different twisted pairs. This error cancels the crosstalk elimination characteristics of twisted pair wiring and produces crosstalk. Use a single twisted pair for Transmit and another twisted pair for Receive to minimize crosstalk.

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)

TCP/IP is the protocol suite originally developed by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to interconnect a research network. It later evolved into the Internet. The TCP/IP is an open standard not owned by any particular organization. The term TCP/IP is often used to refer to the entire suite of related protocols that includes IP, FTP, Telnet, RIP.

TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry)

A TDR is a method to determine a cable’s length, characteristic impedance, and other parameters by transmitting a pulse down into a cable and examining reflected energy.
