Fast Ethernet is a communications protocol that enables computers on a local-area network to share information with one another at rates of 100 million bits per second instead of the standard 10 million BPS. Fast Ethernet works over Category 5 twisted-pair wiring. There are two available types of 100Base-T standards. The first standard known as 100Base-T utilizes CSMA/CD. The second standard known as 100VG-AnyLAN or 802.12 is similar to the other standard however utilizes a different type of Ethernet frame to send its data. 100Base-T is available in three different types of cable technologies:1. 100Base-T4 = Utilizes four pairs of telephone-grade twisted-pair wire and is used for networks that need a low-quality twisted-pair on a 100-Mbps Ethernet. 2. 100Base-TX = Developed by ANSI 100Base-TX is also known as 100Base-X, 100Base-TX uses two wire data grade twisted-pair wire 3. 100Base-FX = Developed by ANSI, 100Base-FX utilizes 2 stands of fiber cable.
