A. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in a shared collision domain.
B. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in a private collision domain.
C. Half-duplex Ethernet has higher effective throughput.
D. Half-duplex Ethernet has lower affective throughput.
E. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in a private broadcast domain.
Answer: A, D
Explanation:
The original Ethernet specifications used a shared bus, over which only one frame could be sent at any point in time. So, a single device could not be sending a frame and receiving a frame at the same time because it would mean that a collision was occurring. Half duplex stations use CSMA/CD to prevent collisions on the network, because the collision domain is shared. Full duplex Ethernet eliminated the need to collision detection, by allowing for two way communication.
Incorrect Answers:
B. Full duplex effectively doubles the throughput of half-duplex operation, because data can be both sent and received at the full 10/100 speed.
C, E. In half duplex operation, the network is shared between all devices in the collision domain.
B. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in a private collision domain.
C. Half-duplex Ethernet has higher effective throughput.
D. Half-duplex Ethernet has lower affective throughput.
