Ko te Ethernet Tere (FE) te kupu mo Ethernet i roto i te whatunga rorohiko, e whakarato ana i te tere whakawhiti 100Mbps. Ko te paerewa IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-T Tere Itarangi Tere i whakauruhia e te IEEE i te tau 1995, a ko te tere tuku o te Ethernet tere i mua ko 10Mbps. Ko te paerewa Ethernet Tere e toru nga waahanga iti: 100BASE-FX, 100BASE-TX, me 100BASE-T4. 100 tohu te tere tuku o 100Mbit/s. "BASE" te tikanga o te tuku riipene turanga; Ko te reta i muri i te taarua e pa ana ki te reo whakawhiti e mau ana i te tohu, "T" e tu ana mo te takirua takirua (parahi), "F" e tu ana mo te muka whatu; Ko te tohu whakamutunga (reta "X", nama "4", me etahi atu) e pa ana ki te tikanga waehere raina i whakamahia. Ko te ripanga e whai ake nei e whakaatu ana i nga momo Ethernet tere noa.
Ka whakatauritea ki te Ethernet tere, ka taea e Gigabit Ethernet (GE) te tuku tere whakawhiti 1000Mbps i roto i te whatunga rorohiko. Ko te paerewa Gigabit Ethernet (e mohiotia ana ko te paerewa IEEE 802.3ab) i whakaputaina manahia e IEEE i te tau 1999, he tau torutoru noa iho i muri i te taenga mai o te paerewa Fast Ethernet, engari kaore i whakamahia nuitia tae noa ki te tau 2010. Ka tango a Gigabit Ethernet i te whakatakotoranga anga. o IEEE 803.2 Ethernet me te CSMA/CD media mana uru tikanga, e taea te mahi i roto i te haurua matarua me te aratau matarua katoa. He rite nga taura me nga taputapu a Gigabit Ethernet ki a Fast Ethernet, engari he pai ake, he ohanga. Na te whanaketanga tonu o Gigabit Ethernet, kua puta ake nga momo putanga matatau, penei i te 40G Ethernet me te 100G Ethernet. He rereke nga paerewa paparanga tinana a Gigabit Ethernet, penei i te 1000BASE-X, 1000BASE-T, me te 1000BASE-CX.
