VM600 NETWORKING INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
1.4.3 Ethernet
Ethernet provides a method for high-bandwidth communication between devices connected
on a LAN. At present, it is the most commonly used computer networking technology.
The original Ethernet specification served as a basis for the IEEE 802.3 standard. This
designates both physical transmission media and the method of transmission along the
media.
Over 20 variations of Ethernet are presently available. The ones most applicable to the
VM600 system are:
1- 10BASE-T
• Operates at up to 10 Mbps and uses baseband transmission methods
• Uses the least expensive cable type, such as shielded twisted pair (STP) or
unshielded twisted pair (UTP). (UTP is the most common)
• Maximum cable segment length is 100 meters
• Cables use 8P8C modular connectors (often called RJ45 connectors)
