Emphasize: You may want to explain how cable names are determined. They follow the following pattern: The first number describes the speed of the cable. The next word describes whether it is baseband or broadband cable. The final letter(s) describe the media. 100 Mbps cables are used for Fast Ethernet. T represents twisted pair media. F represents fiber. For example, 10BaseT is 10 Mbps baseband twisted-pair cable. Emphasize: The table in the figure, compares 10baseT and Fast Ethernet. It also describes where in the hierarchical model Ethernet and Fast Ethernet can be seen. Purpose: This figure further compares various Ethernet options. Purpose: This figure illustrates the different ports used in Ethernet. Emphasize: RJ-45 ports are common on Cisco platforms. Some devices also offer DB-15 interfaces for AUI. If the cable is fiber, the port will look different. Point each port out to the students. Note: If you have devices available that have the various ports, show the actual ports to your students. Purpose: This figure illustrates an unshielded twisted-pair RJ-45 connector. Emphasize: the RJ-45 has eight pins. Some are for tip (T) and some for ring(R). Emphasize: Make sure each student has seen a Cat 5 cable. Describe the test for straight through cable determination. If you hold the two ends of an RJ-45 cable side by side, youll see eight colored strips, or pins, at each end. If the order of the colored pins is the same at each end, then the cable is straight through. If the order of the colors is reversed at each end, then the cable is crossed over or rolled. Straight-thru Ethernet uses pins 1, 2, 3, and 6. Straight-thru cables are used for switch to router cabling, switch to PC or server cabling, or hub to PC or server cabling. Emphasize: Make sure each student has seen a Cat 5 cable. Describe the test for crossover cable determination. If you hold the two ends of an RJ-45 cable side by side, youll see eight colored strips, or pins, at each end. If
