10Base-T

   Also found in: Acronyms 0.01 sec.
10Base-T
An Ethernet standard that transmits at 10 Mbps over twisted wire pairs (telephone wire). 10Base-T is a shared media LAN when used with a hub (all nodes share the 10 Mbps) and 10 Mbps between each pair of nodes when used with a switch. There are rarely new 10Base-T products. Most Ethernet adapters, hubs and switches are 10/100 devices, which support both 10Base-T and 100Base-T, which is 10 times as fast. (see 10/100 adapter).

A Star Configuration
In the 1980s, 10Base-T began to be widely deployed. Using inexpensive and flexible twisted pair "telephone wires," 10Base-T Ethernet ("T" means twisted) was easier to install than previous "thick" and "thin" Ethernets that used coaxial cable. See Ethernet, 10Base-F and switched Ethernet.

"Twisted Pair" Ethernet
All stations in a 10Base-T and 100Base-T Ethernet are wired to a central hub or switch using twisted pair wires and RJ-45 connectors.

With the new board, data rates are approximately 10 times faster than the CNC 10BASE-T Ethernet board.
The Micro Linear ML6652 is the only available media converter that supports 10BASE-FL, 100BASE-SX, and 100BASE-FX Ethernet standards on the fiber side and 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet standards on the copper side.
The point-to-point and point-to-multipoint copper demonstration will include the short reach 10BASE-TS (Ethernet based VDSL) as well as the long reach 2PASS-TL (Ethernet based G.
