Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ethernet standards govern both the physical layer and the data link layer of the OSI model. The physical layer is responsible for transmitting raw bits over a communication channel while the data link layer provides reliable data transfer across a physical link. Ethernet standards define the physical layer specifications for cable types, connectors, and transmission technologies, as well as the data link layer protocols for framing, addressing, and error detection.
