Network Interface Cards
CPU can't process data at network speeds – Computers use special purpose hardware for network
connection Typically a separate card in the backplane
– Network adapter card or network interface card (NIC) – Connector at back of computer then accepts cable to physical
network NIC is built for one kind of physical network
– Ethernet interface can't be used with token ring – ATM interface can't be used with FDDI
Some NICs can be used with different, similar hardware – Thick, thin and 10Base-T Ethernet – 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet

NIC and CPU
NIC processes network frames independent of the CPU
Looks like any other I/O device to system CPU – System CPU forms message request – Sends instructions to NIC to transmit data – Receives interrupt on arrival of incoming data

Ethernet Wiring
Network technology not limited to one style of connection
Ethernet Technologies– Three wiring schemes
correspond to three generations
– All run same link speed of 10Mbps
– All use same frame format– All are Ethernet

Original Ethernet Wiring - Thicknet
Used thick coaxial cable -- Called thicknet Formal name 10Base5 -- Each segment can be up to 500m and
100 stations AUI cable (or transceiver or drop cable connects from NIC to
transceiver AUI cable carries digital signal from NIC to transceiver Transceiver generates analog signal on coax Wires in AUI cable carry digital signals, power and other control
signals Requires termination to avoid signal reflectance

Connection Multiplixers
Transceivers can be inconvenient – e.g., workstations in a lab
Connection multiplexor connects multiple computers to a single transceiver
Connection multiplexor completely invisible to attached computers

Thin Ethernet Wiring - Thinnet
Uses thinner coax– cheaper and easier to install than thick Ethernet coax
Transceiver electronics built into NIC– NIC connects directly to network medium
Coax cable uses BNC connector Formal name 10Base2 -- Each segment can be up to 200m and 30 stations

Hub-based 10BaseT
Uses a hub -- Replaces thick coax with hub Formal name 10BaseT -- Each segment can be
up to 100m and runs on twisted pair Called 10Base-T, twisted pair or TP Ethernet Replaces AUI cable with twisted pair cable

Sometimes called ``Ethernet-in-a-box''
Effectively a very short Ethernet with very long AUI cables
Can be connected into larger Ethernets

Comparing Ethernet Wiring Schemes
Thicknet:– Separate transceiver allows computer to be changed or
disconnected without disrupting other communication – Transcievers are inconvenient
» located in difficult to reach place » Finding malfunctioning transceiver can be hard
Thinnet– Lower cost than thicknet. Coax takes minimum cabling – Disconnecting one computer (or one loose connection)
can disrupt entire network 10Base-T
– Hub wiring centralizes management and makes it easier
– Bottom line - 10BaseT most popular because of cost

Extending Ethernet
More details in the next chapter Example:
– Multiple Ethernet segments can be connected using repeaters (no more than four => total length 2,500m).

Logical and Physical Topologies
Physically– Original Ethernet used bus topology– Modern Ethernet uses star topology
In fact, modern Ethernet is– Physical star– Logical bus– Called star-shaped bus
Distinguish between logical and physical topologies– 10BaseT logical topology is a bus; wiring topology is a
star – Token Ring logical topology is a ring; wiring topology is
a star» Token Ring hub: Ring-in-a-box

Summary
Network interface card (NIC) – connects computer system to network – operates independently of the system CPU– Typically uses interrupts to interact with CPU
Many physical wiring schemes are available for a logical network topology
Three basic Ethernet wiring schemes– 10Base5, 10Base2, and 10BaseT
10Base-T is a logical bus and a physical star
