History

• Ethernet was emerged at Xerox Park between 1973
  and 1974.
• Ethernet is currently used to interconnect
  commercial/ industrial appliances and
  other personal devices. Industrial ethernet is
  boosting modern data transmission systems in
  telecommunications networks.

What is Ethernet in Networking?

• Ethernet is primarily a widely used communication
  protocol applied mainly to transmit receive
  data between two or more different types of
  network cables like from copper to fiber optic
  and the other way around.
• Ethernet is commonly utilized in homes and
  industry, and interworks well with wireless Wi-Fi
  technologies. the web Protocol is
  typically carried over Ethernet then it's
  considered one of the key technologies that
  structure the web platform. .
• There are many types of Ethernet networks. A
  standard Ethernet network can transmit data at a
  rate up to 10 Megabits per second (10 Mbps).

Types of Ethernet Networks

• Fast Ethernet Fast Ethernet is that way of
  transferring data at the speed of 100 megabits
  per second. It is the computing networking term
  for a LAN transmission standard. Typically these
  types of network uses a twisted pair or CAT5
  cable.
• Gigabit Ethernet Gigabit speed is an upgrade
  from Fast Ethernet. Unlike Fast Ethernet Gigabit
  Ethernet requires specifically designed network
  devices, like a Gigabit Ethernet switch, which
  will support the speed of 1000 Mbps rate . GE can
  work well with a regular coaxial cable that meets
  the CAT5e or CAT6 cabling standards.

Types of Ethernet Networks

• 10-Gigabit Ethernet This network type is even
  more advanced and works at high speed data
  transfer rate of 10 Gigabit/second. 10 Gigabit
  Ethernet switches are employed in very high speed
  network applications  mostly in the data center
  or server room.
• Switch Ethernet This type of network requires a
  switch or hub to function. Also, there is no need
  of a twisted pair cable as a normal network cable
  works well in this case.

Types of Ethernet Cables

• 10Base2 This is a thin twisted pair coaxial
  cable.
• 10Base5 This is thick twisted pair coaxial
  cables.
• 10Base T This is a twisted pair cable which
  offers a speed of around 10 Mbps.
• 100BaseTX This is a twisted pair cable and offer
  a speed of 100 Mbps.
• 100Base FX Fiber optic protocol which offers a
  speed of 100 Mbps.
• 1000Base SX Fiber optic protocol which utilizes
  a wavelength of 850nm for multimode networks.
• 1000Base LX Fiber optic protocol which utilizes
  a wavelength of 1310 nm, for multimode networks
  and up to 1550nm for singlemode networks.

Ethernet media converter

• An Ethernet media converter is a small device
  that can support communications between two
  different types of network media such as fiber
  and coaxial cables.
• Media converter is a 2 ports equipped device,
  where 2 different networking cables can be
  plugged in, copper interface on one side and
  fiber interface on another side while
  transmitting the data.

Advantages of Ethernet Media Converters

• Easy installation Installing Ethernet media
  converters becomes easy as they can be installed
  as standalone or rack mountable in a media
  converter chassis,. Because they are quite small
  compact, can be placed in cramped areas.
• Cost-effective Media converters create more
  reliable and cost effective network as they
  support a wide list of protocols, data rates and
  media types. Media converters can connect fiber
  and copper networks without having to install a
  altogether a new infrastructure for your entire
  network.

Advantages of Ethernet Media Converters

• Increased speed Fiber-based media converters are
  versatile due to which the functionality becomes
  fast and at an affordable cost.
• Larger coverage Converters allow a user to
  transmit data over distances up to 100km by using
  fiber optic conversion.
• Less electromagnetic interference Media
  converters make the data transmission path
  between copper to fiber much smoother, with the
  added benefit of less electromagnetic
  interference.
• Other Converters can even convert any IP device
  such as a camera to fiber optic.

Conclusion

• With all of the growing demand for data in both
  personal and professional lives, Media converters
  are a great tool to have if you are willing to
  expand a current network or building a new
  network at faster speeds. For optimal use of your
  network and improving your speed of
  communication, you can always opt for a top
  quality Ethernet Media converters and other fiber
  optic devices manufactured by VERSITRON
