10BASE-T

10BASE-T is a network communication standard that allows computers and devices to connect using Ethernet cables, typically through a simple twisted-wire pair like standard phone lines. "10" refers to a maximum speed of 10 megabits per second, "BASE" indicates baseband transmission (digital signals over a single channel), and "T" denotes Twisted-pair cabling. It’s commonly used in local area networks (LANs) in homes and offices, enabling reliable data transfer between devices. The standard simplifies network setup by using common, cost-effective cabling and connectors, providing a straightforward way to build wired networks with decent speed for everyday tasks.
