About 10BaseT

Twisted-pair Ethernet, as deﬁned by the IEEE 802.3 speciﬁcations, is called

10BaseT. This is the latest development in the Ethernet evolution and repre-

sents a tremendous leap in networking technology. Because 10BaseT uses

regular twisted-pair (UTP) telephone wire, it decreases the cost of network-

ing. It’s also simple to install because it uses the same RJ45 jacks as your tele-

phone system.

Unlike thick and thin networks, which are arranged in a linear or “bus”

topology, 10BaseT networks are arranged in a “star” conﬁguration, in which

network nodes are connected like spokes in a wheel. A star conﬁguration is

more reliable because each “spoke” is isolated and can’t affect the other

nodes if it runs into trouble.
