IEEE 802.3ae

Defines the physical layer specifications for 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

IEEE 802.3u

Defines CSMA/CD access method and physical layer specifications for

100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet. (Now incorporated in IEEE 802.3-2002.)

IEEE 802.3z

Defines CSMA/CD access method and physical layer specifications for

1000BASE Gigabit Ethernet. (Now incorporated in IEEE 802.3-2002.)

LAN Segment

Separate LAN or collision domain.

LED

Light emitting diode used for monitoring a device or network condition.

Local Area Network (LAN)

A group of interconnected computers and support devices.

Media Access Control (MAC)

A portion of the networking protocol that governs access to the

transmission medium, facilitating the exchange of data between network

nodes.

MIB

An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database

objects that contains information about the device.

Modal Bandwidth

Bandwidth for multimode fiber is referred to as modal bandwidth because

it varies with the modal field (or core diameter) of the fiber. Modal
