IEEE 802.3 Working Group

The IEEE 802.3 Working Group is a group of experts that develops standards for Ethernet networking, which is the technology commonly used for wired local area networks (LANs). Founded by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), this group focuses on ensuring reliable and efficient data transmission over cables. They create specifications that help different devices, like computers and switches, communicate effectively. By establishing these standards, the IEEE 802.3 Working Group facilitates interoperability, ensuring that devices from various manufacturers can work together seamlessly in a network.
