Study Notes

Half-Duplex Mode

  • Half-duplex mode requires collision detection to be activated.

Ethernet Network Topologies

  • Ethernet networks can utilize bus and star physical topologies.
  • Hubs can be cascaded to create a tree topology.

Gigabit Ethernet Standards

  • 1000BaseLX supports long segments (up to 5 km) with single-mode fiber optic cable.
  • 1000Base-SX utilizes multimode fiber optic cabling, maximum segment length of 550 meters, with specific cabling requirements for optimal length.
  • 1000Base-FX supports up to 550 meters with multimode and up to 10 kilometers with single-mode cabling.

Cable Types for Ethernet Standards

  • 100BaseFX networks operate using fiber optic cabling.
  • 100Base-FX half-duplex multimode cable has a maximum segment length of 412 meters.
  • 100Base-TX (Fast Ethernet) twisted-pair cables support a maximum segment length of 100 meters.

Designing Ethernet Networks

  • For distance requirements around 300 meters using existing multimode fiber, consider 1000Base-SX and 10GBase-SR standards.
  • 10Base-FL is slower and not suitable for high-speed designs; 10GBase-T and 1000Base-T require copper wiring.

Long-Distance Ethernet Implementation

  • Implement long-distance fiber optic networks with 1000BaseLX and single-mode fiber for maximum distance capabilities.
  • For 10 Gbps speeds over distances of 1 kilometer or more, utilize 10GBaseLR standards with single-mode fiber.

Summary of Ethernet Standards and Cable Capacities

  • Multimode fiber is more cost-effective but limited in distance compared to single-mode fiber.
  • 10GBaseSR supports distances of up to 300 meters; 10GBaseER extends capabilities up to 40 kilometers using single-mode fiber.
