I read this in TCP/IP PROTOCOL SUITE second edition, written by Behrouz A. Forouzan and Sophia Chung Fegan.In traditional Ethernet, the minimum frame length is 520 bits, the transmission rate is 10 Mbps, the propagation speed is almost the speed of light, and the collision domain is almost 2500 meters.So what is transmission rate and propagation speed? Why they are not the same?
confusion between these two networking terms: transmission rate vs. propagation speed
