Bandwidth
LANs that employ coaxial cable typically have a bandwidth between 2.5 Mbps (ARCnet) and 10 Mbps (Ethernet). Thicker coaxial cables offer higher bandwidth, and the potential bandwidth of coaxial is much higher than 10 Mbps. Current LAN technologies, however, don’t take advantage of this potential.
