| **Ethernet** is a family of computer networking technologies commonly used in [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:l:lan]], metropolitan area networks (MAN) and [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:w:wan]].[1] It was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:i:ieee|IEEE]] 802.3. Ethernet has since retained a good deal of backward compatibility and has been refined to support higher bit rates, a greater number of nodes, and longer link distances. | **Ethernet** is a family of computer networking technologies commonly used in [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:l:lan]], metropolitan area networks (MAN) and [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:w:wan]].[1] It was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:i:ieee|IEEE]] 802.3.
