Happy Birthday, #Ethernet!
Man, this article took me down memory lane lol. My networking days started with #10Base2, T-connectors, #ISA NICs, #tokenring topologies, and #Novell's IPX/SPX! #Thicknet was already old tech when I got into it in the mid to late 1980's. But I did learn about it at my local library! I wasn't even 10 yet!
Can you even imagine what a #terabit looks like? My past self wouldn't have even thought that was possible in his lifetime lol.
Thank you Bob Metcalfe! Our world literally would not be what it is without your invention.
From Megabits to Terabits: Ethernet Celebrates Its Birthday
Exactly fifty years ago, the first concept of the computer networks we know today as Ethernet was designed. It has evolved from a thick coaxial cable connecting computers in a single location to the most common way of connecting networks of all sizes via twisted pair and optical fibre.
