Interframe Spacing:

Minimum spacing between 2 frames following each other on the line.
Time for media to stabilize and devices to process frame.
From the last bit of FCS to the first bit of the Preamble.
96 bit times (9.6 microsec)– time shortens as speed increases.
As we speed up, gap gets shorter as the bits get shorter.
Allows time for slow hosts to process frames.

A = Start Frame Field.
B = Address Field.
C = Type/Length Field.
D = Data Field.
E = FCS Field.
