Computer Networking Topologies and Media
Wireless or Wired Network?
Do you want the freedom of a wireless network, or do you want the security and reliability
of a wired network? Both networks can provide you with great service and expandability,
but each one varies in size, reliability, cost and speed. More ... Fiber Media Converter - What's the Use and How to Choose It
Fiber media converters are used to convert electrical signal to light signal and vice versa.
They are basically used as network extenders to extend the distance from several
hundreds of feet to several thousands meters. More ... The IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Standards
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IEEE sets up committees to
define industry standards. The IEEE 802 committee sets the standards for networking. The IEEE
subcommittee 802.3 sets the standard for Ethernet. More ... Six Things You Must Know About Fiber Optic Cable Materials
Outdoor fiber cables must endure harsh environment factors so outdoor cables must be strong,
weatherproof and UV resistant. Indoor fiber cables should possess NEC required fire and smoke ratings. More ... A Guide to Broadband Internet Connections
By this point, most of America already has a Broadband Connection to the Internet.
But for those that have not yet taken the plunge, a world of benefits awaits you.
Broadband can get you surfing up to 50 times faster than a typical 56K modem. More ... Token Ring Network
In 1984 IBM invented Token Ring. The token ring network may be setup with a physical ring
topology, but is usually implemented in a physical star topology. The central device of the
token ring is called a Multistation Access Unit. More ... What Are Fiber Optic Circulators?
An optical circulator is an nonreciprocal passive device that directs light sequentially
from port to port in only one direction. The operation of a circulator is similar to that
of an isolator except its constructions is more complex. More ... Bluetooth Basics
Bluetooth wireless technology is a specification for a wireless connection that provides
links between mobile computers, mobile phones, other portable handheld devices, and
connectivity to the Internet. More ... Build Your Own Fiber Optic Network Like a Professional Network Engineer
The basic philosophy of modern LAN wiring is the concept of structured cabling. The
entire networking system is broken up into chunks that allow workstation wires to be concentrated. More ... The Difference Between a Hub and a Router
For someone who needs a quick clarification on the matter, a hub combines all linked
computers or workstations into a network, while router links two separate and distinct
networks to each other. More ... Computer Network Routers, Hubs, and Switches
The most common components on a computer network, not counting cables, are "routers",
"hubs", and "switches". Many of these modules can be appear similar and there can be
significant overlap in roles. This article explains the difference between these
important network components. More ... Fiber Distributed Data Interface
The Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) uses pulses of light and fiber optic cable to
send signals with a 100 Mbps throughput over dual counter-rotating rings. More ...
