thicknet การใช้

Maximum thicknet nodes are 100 on a segment.
Unlike a thicknet, it uses a Bayonet Niell-Concelman ( BNC ) on each end to connect to computers.
Thicknet coaxial cabling is used with Ethernet 10BASE5 networks, has a maximum cable length of 500 meters and transmission speeds of 10 Mbit / s.
Through the first half of the 1980s, Ethernet's 10BASE5 implementation used a coaxial cable in diameter, later called " thick Ethernet " or " thicknet ".
AUI connectors became rare beginning in the early 1990s when computers and hubs began to incorporate the MAU, particularly as the 10BASE-T standard became more common and use of 10BASE-5 ( thicknet ) and 10BASE-2 ( thinnet ) declined.
