Thinnet |
Denotes a coaxial cable type (RG-58) that was commonly
used with Ethernet (10Base-2) local area networks.
This coaxial cable has an impedance of 50 ohms and is
0.2 inches in diameter. It is also called cheapernet due to
the fact that it was cheaper to purchase and install than
the bulkier (and larger) thicknet Ethernet cabling. The
maximum distance for a thinnet segment is 180 meters.
