Configuration parameters

Cable (media) type

When you configure certain adapters (for example, the 3Com 503 driver), you need to specify whether the adapter connects to ``thick,'' ``thin'', or ``twisted-pair'' Ethernet cable. Thick and thin are both coaxial cable. Thick cable is approximately 1/2-inch in diameter, and thin is approximately 1/4-inch in diameter. Twisted pair resembles slightly thicker phone cable.
