Ethernet cable layout

This network layout floorplan example was drawn on the base of the picture "Ethernet cable layout" illustrating "UGA Technical Network Liaison Handbook" from the website of the University of Georgia. [netinfo.uga.edu/tnlhand/landiag.gif] "The Ethernet physical layer is the physical layer component of the Ethernet family of computer network standards. The Ethernet physical layer evolved over a considerable time span and encompasses quite a few physical media interfaces and several magnitudes of speed. The speed ranges from 1 Mbit/s to 100 Gbit/s, while the physical medium can range from bulky coaxial cable to twisted pair and optical fiber. In general, network protocol stack software will work similarly on all physical layers. 10-gigabit Ethernet was already used in both enterprise and carrier networks by 2007, with 40 Gbit/s and 100 Gbit/s Ethernet ratified." [Ethernet physical layer.
