The “Base” refers to base band signaling, which means that only Ethernet signals are carried on the medium. The “TX” represents two pairs of data grade twisted-pair wire; the “FX” represents a two-strand optical fiber cable. Show more

Like Ethernet,… Fast Ethernet (IEEE 802.3u), a networking standard that supports data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps (100 megabits per second). 100BASE-T is based on the older Ethernet standard. Like Ethernet, 100BASE-T is based on the CSMA/CD LAN access method. There are several different cabling schemes that can be used with 100BASE-T, including: 100BASE-TX: two pairs of high-quality twisted-pair wires 100BASE-T4: four pairs of normal-quality twisted-pair wires 100BASE-FX: fiber optic cables Show more
