Ethernet Media
Ethernet technologies can be used in a campus network in several different ways: • 10 Mbps at the user level to provide good performance.• 100 Mbps for clients or servers that require more bandwidth. • Fast or Gigabit Ethernet between backbone devices.

Repeaters - Hubs
Repeaters• A repeater regenerates and retimes network signals at the bit level to
allow them to travel a longer distance • 5-4-3 Rule for 10-Mbps Ethernet should be used to limit latency • Too much latency on the LAN increases the number of latecollisions
and makes the LAN less efficient
Hubs Hubs are actually multiport repeaters Change the network topology from a linear bus to a star Three basic types:1. Passive – no boost, no clean and no power2. Active - needs power to amplify the incoming signal 3. Intelligent - microprocessor chip and diagnostic capabilities

Bridges & Switches
Switches
• Bridges and switches operate at the Data Link layer.• Destination MAC address is looked up in the bridge table to determine whether to filter, flood, or copy the frame onto another segment.
• A switch has many ports with many network segments connected to them.• A switch chooses the port to which the destination device is connected.• Alleviates congestion in LANs by reducing the size of collision domains,
reducing traffic and increasing bandwidth.Two basic operations:1. Switching data frames. 2. Build and maintain switching tables and search for loops.
Switches operate at much higher speeds than bridges and can support new functionality, such as virtual LANs.

WirelessMuch less cabling RF, IR, laser, satellite, microwaves The only cabling can be to the Access Points The transmitter converts source data to EM waves The receiver converts waves back into data All devices in WLAN must have Wireless NICs
IR weaknesses: ‘Line of sight’ limitation (newer technologies combat this) Signal weakening or obstruction by people or humidity
RF technology works between rooms or even buildingsRF weaknesses:
Single frequency is subject to outside interference and obstructions Single frequency is easily monitored by others making it insecure
FHSS and DSSS are Spread Spectrum technologies which add security and immunity to noise by using multiple frequencies

NIC
The function of a NIC is to connect a host device to the network medium
The NIC is also referred to as a network adapter NICs are considered Layer 2 devices because each NIC
carries a unique code called a MAC address

Peer-to-PeerIn a peer-to-peer network
• networked computers act as equal partners, or peers• individual users control their own resources
Peer-to-peer networks are relatively easy to install and operate
A peer-to-peer network works well with 10 or fewer computers
peer-to-peer networks do not scale well, their efficiency decreases rapidly as the number of computers on the network increases
Security is difficult to maintain

Client/Server
In a client/server arrangement, network services are located on a dedicated computer called a server
The server is a central computer that is continuously available to respond to requests from clients for file, print, and application services
Servers are designed to handle requests from many clients simultaneously
The aggregation of resources on server systems brings greater security, simpler access and coordinated control, the server introduces a single point of failure

Peer-to-Peer vs. Client/ServerAdvantages
Advantages of a Peer-to-Peer Network
Advantages of a Client/Server Network
Less expensive to implement Provides for better security
Does not require additional specialized network administration software
Easier to administer when the network is large due to centralized administration
Does not require a dedicated network administrator
All data can be backed up on one central location

Peer-to-Peer vs. Client/ServerDisadvantages
Disadvantages of a Peer-to-Peer Network
Disadvantages of a Client/Server Network
Does not scale well to a large networks and administration becomes unmanageable
Requires expensive specialized network administrative and operational software
Each user must be trained to perform administrative tasks
Requires expensive, more powerful hardware for the server machine
Less secure Requires a professional administrator
All machines sharing resources negatively impacts performance
Has a single point of failure. User data is unavailable if the server is down

WAN Connections
Serial connections are used to support WAN services such as dedicated leased lines that run Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) or Frame Relay
Module 5 – Cabling LANs & WANs
23
KykkosB – Regional Academy
WAN
WANs use serial transmission
This is a process by which bits of data are sent over a single channel
This process provides reliable long distance communication and the use of a specific electromagnetic or optical frequency range
Signals transmitted over voice grade telephone lines use 3 kilohertz (kHz).

WANSerial connections are used to support WAN services
such as dedicated leased lines that run Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) or Frame Relay
ISDN offers dial-on-demand connections or dial backup services.• ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) is composed of:
Two 64 kbps bearer channels (B channels) for data
One delta channel (D channel) at 16 kbps used for signaling and other link-management tasks
• PPP is typically used to carry data over the B channels.

Router Connections
Cisco router physical connectivity is provided by serial connections: • The first type of serial connections is a 60-pin connector• The second is a more compact ‘smart serial’ connector
The provider connector will vary depending on the type of service equipment
Module 5 – Cabling LANs & WANs

DTE/DCE
When the connection is made directly to a service provider, or a device that provides signal clocking such as a channel/data service unit (CSU/DSU), the router will be a data terminal equipment (DTE) and use a DTE serial cable.
When the local router is required to provide the clocking rate it will use a data communications equipment (DCE) cable

Managing Routers
To initially configure the Cisco device, a management connection must be directly connected to the device
The console port allows monitoring and configuration of a Cisco hub, switch, or router
The cable used between a terminal and a console port is a rollover cable
also known as a console cable
