Numerics

1X — First phase of third-generation (3G) mobile wireless technology for CDMA2000 networks.

1XEV — Evolutionary phase of third-generation (3G) CDMA2000 networks, divided into two phases: 1XEV-DO (data only) and 1XEV-DV (data and voice).

3DES — Triple Data Encryption Standard. A 168-bit encryption algorithm that encrypts data blocks with three different keys in succession, achieving a higher level of encryption than standard DES. 3DES is often implemented with cipher block chaining (CBC). 3DES is one of the strongest encryption algorithms available for use in virtual private networks (VPNs). Also called triple DES.

3GPP — Third-generation Partnership Project. Created to expedite the development of open, globally accepted technical specifications for the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS).

802.1ad — The IEEE specification for “Q-in-Q” encapsulation and bridging of Ethernet frames.

802.1ah — The IEEE specification for media access control (MAC) tunneling encapsulation and bridging of Ethernet frames across a provided backbone-managed bridge.

802.1Q — The IEEE specification for adding virtual local area network (VLAN) tags to an Ethernet frame.

802.3ah — The IEEE specification for adding virtual local area network (VLAN) tags to an Ethernet frame.
