Wired LANS - Ethernet -Information Technology

It consists of typed notes of Wired LANS- Ethernet. It is shared with me by a student studying at FCRIT, Vashi and I thought of uploading it here so that the students of Information Technology would benefit a lot from it. Thank You! Enjoy learning.

Ethernet

It can use coaxial, twisted pair and fiber optic cables. Ethernet uses frames to with source and destination MAC addresses to deliver data.
