High Speed Confusion........I am a mechanical engineer working in the field of electrical interconnections (connectors). Can someone explain in basic terms what the frequecny of operation the following "protocols" run at:
CAT 5
100 Base T Ethernet
1000 Base T Ethernet
IEEE 1394
Mil-Std-1553
Fiber Channel
Any comments are welocme. Thank you in adavcnce.

I work as a development engineer for AMP - Tyco Electronics located near Harrisburg, PA. I help design interconnections and electrical connectors for aerospace applications.

100 Base T is fast ethernet, transmitted over Twisted pair cable. It has a raw data rate of 100 Mbits/s and is full duplex
1000 Base T is Gigabit ethernet, over twisted pairs, raw data rate of 1000 Mbits/s and is full duplex
IEEE 1394 is firewire. raw data rate is 400/Mbit/s and up.
Mil-std-1553 is a command/response bus transmitted over a single twisted shielded pair. 1553 is very robust, with emissions controlled to met aircraft EMC requirements. Raw data rate is 1Mbit/s and is half duplex
Fiber Channel is a protocal that can be implemented over either copper wire or fiber. It has variable data rates starting at about 100Mbits/s and going to well above 1000Mbits/s.
