10/100Base-T
There are several standards for Ethernet over twisted pair or copper-based computer networking
physical connectivity methods. The currently most widely used of these are 10Base-T, 100Base-
TX, and 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet), running at 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, and 1000 Mb/s (1 Gb/s)
respectively.

Applications that provide the capacity and converged networking capabilities that existing
networks need to implement Accelerate Voice over IP solutions to rapidly deliver next-generation
services that enterprises and consumers want.
802.1 Q/P
IEEE 802.1Q (also known as VLAN Tagging) was a project in the IEEE 802 standards process to
develop a mechanism to allow multiple bridged networks to transparently share the same physical
network link without leakage of information between networks (i.e. trunking). IEEE 802.1Q is
also the name of the standard that resulted from this process, and in common usage it is the name
of the encapsulation protocol used to implement this mechanism over Ethernet networks.
IEEE 802.1P is a standard that provides traffic class expediting and dynamic multicast filtering.
Essentially, it provides a mechanism for implementing Quality of Service (QoS) at the MAC
level.
