OSI Model: From bits to frequencies
Layer 1: physical layer
Ethernet
Technique
10 Mbps
 10 MHz
Manchester Encoding
The Network Interface Cards (NIC) translate the bits into voltage levels (Frequencies).
The encoding technique compresses the bit stream so that high bit rate application
can be transported over lower bandwidth links.
Because of the fact that the transmission speed is depending on the encoding technique,
we do not use the term Mbps to compare cables to each other, but we use MHz
which is the parameter expressing the bandwidth of the cable.
The physical Layer 1 is thus completely determined by
the upper laying layers
