Ethernet (IEEE 802.3)
10 Mb/s, based on CSMA/CD
- 10BASE5 (“thick” Ethernet, coaxial cable)
- 10BASE2 (“thin” Ethernet, “Cheapernet”, coaxial cable)
- 10BASE-T (the dominating type, 2 Cat. 3 copper pairs)
100 Mb/s
- 100BASE-T
- 100BASE-TX (based on CSMA/CD which isn’t really needed, replacing 10BASE-T, 2 Cat. 5 copper pairs)
- 100BASE-T4 (the same in 4 Cat. 3 copper pairs)
- 100BASE-FX (2 optical fibers)
- 100-VGAnyLAN (compatible with Ethernet and Token Ring, Collision Avoidance instead of CSMA/CD)
1 Gb/s Ethernet has come to the market, works in fibre and probably soon over short distances in copper
