1000Base-TX

100Base-TX

1000Base-T uses all four cable pairs for simultaneous transmission in both directions through the use of echo cancellation and a 5-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM- 5) technique.

In 1999, the 802.3ab standard (1000Base-T) allows Gigabit Ethernet to run over Category 5 copper cable, enabling GigE devices to be readily installed in 100BaseT networks without cable changes. The maximum distance between nodes is based on the type of transceiver and cable used.

100-Mbps baseband Fast Ethernet specification using two pairs of either UTP or STP wiring. The first pair of wires is used to receive data; the second is used to transmit. To guarantee proper signal timing, a 100Base-TX segment cannot exceed 100 meters in length. Based on the IEEE 802.3 standard. See also Ethernet, and IEEE.

10Base-T	10-Mbps baseband Ethernet specification using two pairs of
	twisted-pair cabling: one pair for transmitting data and the
	other for receiving data. 10Base-T, which is part of the IEEE
	802.3 specification, has a distance limit of approximately 100
	meters per segment. See also Ethernet and IEEE.
16 K	194	× 267 mm or 195 x 270 paper. Two slightly different sizes
	exist depending on the area of purchase.
2 sided	Refers to a document that contains images on both sides of
	the page. Synonymous with “double-sided”
8 K	267	× 388 mm or 270 x 390 mm paper. Two slightly different
	sizes exist depending on the area of purchase.
A3	420	× 297 mm paper.
A4	297	× 210 mm paper.
A5	210	× 148 mm paper.
Activity Report	A report that contains information about fax jobs sent and
	received.
Address Book	A list of fax numbers and e-mail addresses, and file transfer
	destinations stored in the machine for easy reference.
