`
`ISO (the International Organization f~Jr Standardization) and IEC (the lnternati~Jnal Elec·
`trotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization..
`National bodies that are membet·s of ISO or IEC participate in the deV<~Iupment of Interna(cid:173)
`tional Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to
`deal with pa:rtieular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate
`in fields of mutual inte·rest. Other international organizations, governmental and nongovern·
`mental, in liaison with ISO and HW, also take part in the work.
`In the field of information. technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical com(cid:173)
`mittee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technLcal commit-(cid:173)
`tee are circulated to national bodies for votin.g. P11.blication as an International Standard
`requires ap-proval by at least 75% ofthe national bodies casting a vote.
`In 1985, IEEE Standard 802.3-1985 was adopted by ISO Technical Committee 97, lnforma·
`tion processing systf!ms, as draft International Standard ISOJDJS 8802-3. Following the proce(cid:173)
`dun.ls described above, the Standard was subsequently approved by ISO and published as ISO
`8802-3 : 1989, incorporating ISO 88{)2-3/DAD .l which had resulted from the adoption by ISO
`in 1987 of ANSI/IEEE St.d 802.3a.
`A further revision was subsequently approved by ISOflEC JTC l in 1990, incorporating
`ISO/IEC 8802-3/Amendments .2 and 5.
`A third edition, published in 1992, incorporated ISO/IEC 8802-3/Amendmen ts a and 4.
`This fourth edition cancels and replaces ISO/IEC 8802-3: 1992 and incorporates ISO/IEC
`8802·3/Amendment. 6, Mainterw.ru:e Ballot; Amendment 7, Layer managernent; and Amend·

`LAYER
`
`This family of standards. deals with the Physical and Data Link layers as defined by the JSO Open Sys(cid:173)
`tems Interconnection Basic Reference Model {ISO 7498 : 1984). The access standards define four types of
`medium access technologies and associated physical media, each appropriate for particulat· applications o.r
`system objectives. Other types are under investigation.
`The standards defining these technologies arE• as follows:

`(2)
`(3)
`(4)
`
`ISOt1EC 8802-3 [ANSI/IEEE Std 802.3, 1993 Edition], a bus utilizing CS:MAiCD .as the access

`ISO/IEC 8802-4 [ANSIJIEEE Std 802.4-1990], a bus utilizing token passing as the access method,
`ISO/IEC 8802-5 [ANSL'IEEE Std. 802.5-19921, a ring utilizing token passing as the access method,
`ISO 8802-7, a ring utilizing slotted ring as the. access method.
`
`ISO 8802-2 [ANSI/IEEE Std 802.2-1989], Logi-ca.l Link Control protocol, is used in COlljunction with the
`medium access standards.
`ISO!lEC 10038 [ANS111EEE Std 802.1D, 1993 EdHion], Media access control 0\.fAC) bridges, specifies an
`architecture and protocol for the interconnection of IEEE 802 LANs below the MAG Sl:'r-vice boundary.
`The reader of this document is urged to become familiar with the complete family of standards.
`The main body of this standard serves for both the ISO!IEC 8802-3 and ANSVIEEE Std 802 . .3 stan-(cid:173)
`dards. ISO!IEC and IEEE each have unique foreword sections. 'rhe Annex applies to the r:gEE standard

`
`IEEE Standards documents arc developed within the Technical Committees oftht~ lEKg
`Societies and the Standards Conrdinating Committees of the lEEJ<~ Standards Board. Mem·
`hers o.f the committees serve voluntarily and without compensation. They are not necessarily
`membe:rs of the Institute. The standards developed within IEEE tept·esent a consensus of the
`broad expertise on the subject within the Institute as well as those ::ldjvitieB outside of IEF.E
`which have e.xpress(ld an interest in participating in the development of the standard.
`Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The e.xistl~nr.e of an IEEE Standard does not
`imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market,. or provide
`othP.x goods and serv-i.ces related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the view·
`point expressed at the time a standard is appl'oved and issued is suqject to change brought
`about through developments in the state of the at·t and comments received from users of the
`standard. Every IEEE Standard is subjectf..-d to rtwiew at least once evHry five years for revi(cid:173)
`sion or reaffirmation. When a document is more than five years old, and has not been n•af..
`firmed, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of some value,. do not
`wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to ch<Jck to determine that they
`have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard.
`Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are weleome from any interested party, regard·
`less of membership afliliatio.n. with IEEE. Suggestions for chan.ges :i.n. documents should be in
`the form of a proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments.
`Interpretations: Occasiot~ally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portion.~ of
`standards as they relate t.o specific applications. When the need for interpretations is brought;
`to the attention of IEEE, the Instit.ute will initiate action to prepare appropriate responses.
`Since mgE Standards represent a consensus of all eone<m;ed interests, it is important to
`ensure that any interpretation has also received the concurrence of a balance of inter<"sts. For
`this reason IEEE and the members of its technical committees are not able to provide an
`instant response to interpretation. requests except in those eases where the matter has previ(cid:173)
`ously received f<mnal consideration.
`Comments on standards and requests for interpretations shou.ld be addressed to:

`
`Another sia.ndards series, identified by the numb1~r 1802, has been established to Identify the conform(cid:173)

`the various 802 standards and their applicable conformance test requirements readily apparent. Tims the
`conformance test documents for 802.::1 are rmmbered 1802.3, the confol'mance test documents for 802.5 wiU
`be 1802.5, and so on. Similarly, ISO will use 18802 t.o number conformance test standards for 8802
`standards.

`
`'rhis edition of the standard defines 10 .Mb/s baseband and broadband implementations and a 1 Mb/s
`baseband implemtmtation of th<~ Physical Layer using the CS:VWCD access method. It is anticipated that
`f'utur~ editions of the standard may provide additional implementations of the physical layer to support
`different needs (for example, media, and data rates).

`This standard contains state-of-the-art material. The ar1~a covered by this standard is undergoing evolu(cid:173)
