100Base T: 100 Mbps Ethernet.There are three types of physical wiring that can carry signals: 100BASE-T4, 100BASE-TX, and 100BASE-FX. This designation is an IEEE shorthand identifier. The "100" in the media type designation refers to the transmission speed of 100 Mbps. The "BASE" refers to baseband signaling, which means that only Ethernet signals are carried on the medium. The "T4," "TX," and "FX" refer to the physical medium that carries the signal.

10Base T: The most widely installed Ethernet local area networks use ordinary telephone twisted-pair wire. When used on Ethernet, this carrier medium is known as 10BASE-T. 10BASE-T supports Ethernet's 10 Mbps transmission speed.
