Which physical layer network standard would use 8B/10B encoding?

  • 1000BASE-T
  • IEEE 802.15
  • IEEE 802.11n
  • TIA/EIA-568

Explanation: In Manchester encoding, the transition occurs at the middle of each bit period. Manchester encoding is used in older Ethernet standards such as 10BASE-T. Ethernet 100BASE-X family uses 4B/5B encoding and 1000BASE-X uses 8B/10B encoding.
