Numerical

10 Base-T: The most-common form of Ethernet; its capacity (i.e., bandwidth) is 10 million bits/sec. (Technically, the term relates to CSMA/CD network access and the IEEE 802.3 physical layer spec for Ethernet over two pairs of category 3, 4, or 5 UTP wire.) 100 Base-T: The most-common form of Fast Ethernet; its capacity is 100 million bits/sec, 10 times faster than the regular 10 Base-T.

2-D Bar Codes: Two-dimensional bar codes (e.g., PDF417, MaxiCode) that contain much more information than linear bar codes.

3PL: Third-Party Logistics: Outsourced logistics. A 3PL provider is a specialized entity that operates and provides logistical services, and as an LLP (q.v.) may also coordinate/integrate the services of others with complementary or supporting capabilities. Also "TPL."

4PL: Fourth-Party Logistics: Supply chain coordination and management by an entity that does not supply (operate) underlying logistical services. "4PL" is a trademark of management consultants, Accenture.
