IEEE 802.3

IEEE 802.3 is a working group and a collection of standards defining the physical layer and data link layer's media access control (MAC) of wired Ethernet. The standards are produced by the working group of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). This is generally a local area network (LAN) technology with some wide area network (WAN) applications. Physical connections are made between nodes and/or infrastructure devices (hubs, switches, routers) by various types of copper or fiber cable.

This article is about the standards working group. For Ethernet frame data format, see Ethernet frame.

802.3 is a technology that supports the IEEE 802.1 network architecture.

802.3 also defines LAN access method using CSMA/CD.

Communication standards
Ethernet standard Date Description
Experimental
Ethernet		 1973[1] 2.94 Mbit/s (367 kB/s) over coaxial cable (coax) bus. Single byte node address unique only to individual network.
