Consider a CSMA/CD network running at 20 Mb/s over 3-km cable
with no repeaters. The
signal speed in the cable is 2×10^8 m/s. Suppose station A
starts transmitting a frame of size 400 bytes at time T.
Can it happen that the station detects a collision at time T+33
us, if there was no collision detected between time T and T+33 us?
