8.6 Identify standards organizations

Several worldwide standards organizations are responsible for settings networking standards. Standards are used by manufacturers as a basis for developing technology, especially communications and networking technologies. Standardizing technology ensures that products will be able to communicate with any other products using the same technology. The standards groups create, examine, and update standards and technology to meet the demands for higher bandwidth, efficient communication, and reliable service. These standards are applied to the development of technology to meet the demands for higher bandwidth, efficient communication, and reliable service.

Be familiar with these standards to implement and repair equipment that follows the guidelines described in the standards. If the standards are not followed during a cable installation, for example, the network may not operate at the speed needed. When you do not adhere to standards, you may also find that you have trouble updating, replacing, or upgrading network components.
