Alternative Technologies for Ethernet

From Computing and Software Wiki

With its introduction in the early 1980s, Ethernet has been the predominant solution to local area networking all over the world. But with advances in technology and other countries exploring new options, it is only just now that many new alternatives to the standard approach of using the common twisted pair cables, are emerging. These kind of networks can be found anywhere, from a network in your house, to the network connecting all the computers in a school or business. However larger networks that do not consist of simple point to point connection would require many more hubs to bridge the connections between networked machines.
