Cards

Term

ETHERNET

Definition

AN EXAMPLE OF BASEBAND.

 

WHAT IS BASEBAND? 1 DIGITAL SIGNAL AT A TIME GOING DOWN THE WIRE. WITH DIGITAL WE USE THE WHOLE PIPELINE.

Term

CWDM

Definition

COURSE WAVE DIVISION MULTIPLEXING



MULTIPLEXING IS CHANGING THE SIGNAL. CWDM IS MULTIPLEXING DEFINED BY WAVELENGH INSTEAD OF FREQUENCY

Term

WIRELESS NETWORK TOPOLOGY


THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF WIRELESS TOPOLOGIES ARE:

Definition

INFRASTRUCTURE WIRELESS

MESH

AD HOC

 

Term

802.11n:

WHAT IS THE 802.11?

WHAT IS THE .11N?

Definition

802.11 DEFINES WIRELESS IN GENERAL TERMS

N MEANS:

THE THEREORETICALLY MAXIMUM THROUGHPUT IS:

600 MGbits

Term
BASIC SERVICE SET
Definition

GROUP OF STATIONS THAT SHARE AN ACCESS POINT

Term
IScsi
Definition

SCSI-SMALL COMPUTER SYSTEM INTERFACE

 

ISCSI:

TECHNOLOGY NEEDED FOR STORAGE AREA NETWORK TO BE PUT ON A NETWORK.

 

USE ISCSI TO MAKE PRE-EXISTANT ETHERNET ARCHITECTURE WORK

Term
BROADBAND
Definition

BAND-

ONE TYPE OF COMMUNCIATIOIN THAT IS GOING ON, I.E. ONE WAVE, 0, 1’S.

1 BAND MEANS DIGITAL.

BROADBAND MEANS WE HAVE A BROAD SPECTRUM OF DIFFERENT BANDS THAT RAE GOING OVER A COMMUCNATION CHANNEL.

BANDS- ARE DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES. IN THIS CASE, GOING OVER A COMMUNCIATON CHANNELL

 
Term
Cat6
Definition

WHAT DO CATEGORIES DO?

5 6 6E

INCREASE BANDWIDTH.

IMPROVING THE BANDWIDTH, THROUGH TWISTS, ELIMINATING INTERFERENCE.

CAT 6 MAXIMUM SUPPORTED THERORETICAL BANDWIDTH IS 10 GIG.

CAT 5- 1 GIG

Term
802.11 STANDARDS
Definition

IN GENERAL, THE WORK AT THE PHYSICAL LAYER OF THE OSI MODEL.

THERE ARE DIFFERENT 802.11 STANDARDS

A B G N AC…ARE THROUGHPUTS THEREORETICALLY

 
Term
BEACON FRAME
Definition

SPECIAL SIGNAL THAT CONTAINS INFORMATION THAT A WIRESLSS NODE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO ASSOCIATE ITSELF TO AN ACCESS POINT.

THE ACCESS POINT SENDS OUT A BEACON FRAME. LIKE A LIGHT ON A TOWER

Term
DIFFRACTION
Definition

DEFLECTION-SIGNAL BOUNCES OFF AND STAYS TOGEATHER

DIFFRACTION- IS LIKE A PRISM-SPLITS THE LIGHT

COMPUTER TERMS- CAUSES THE WIRELESS SIGNAL TO SPLIT INTO SECONDARY WAVES

OBSTRUCTION- HITTING A METAL OBJECT—

SIGNAL PROPOGATION PHENONEMAN

 
Term
ENTRANCE FACILITY
Definition

WHERE AN INCOMING NETWORK INTERFACE ENTERS THE BUILDING AND CONNECTS WITH THE BUILDINGS BACKBONE CABELING. (LOCAL CABLING)

ALSO CALLED POP-POINT OF PRESENTS

Term
FREQUENCY
Definition

THE NUMBER OF TIMES A WAVE AMPLITUDE CYCLES FROM THE STARTING POINT THROUGH ITS HIGHEST AMPLITUDE, LOWEST AMPLITUDE AND BACK TO THE STARTING POINT FOR A FIXED PERIOD OF TIME.

FULL CYCLE OF WAVE OVER TIME

HZ- 1 CYCLE/SECOND

GZ-BILLION/SECOND

Term
HALF DUPLEX
Definition

THE METHOD OF TRANSMISSION THAT ALLOWS SIGNAL TO TRAVEL BOTH DIRECTIONS, BUT IN ONLY ONE DIRECTION AT A TIME.

SIMPLEX- 1 DIRECTION ONLY

FULL DUPLEX- BOTH AT SAME TIME

Term
TWISTED PAIR CABELING
Definition

WHAT DO WE NEED TO KNOW?

WHEN TERMINATING AN END TO AN END OF THE CABLE, WE DONT WANT TO EXPOSE MORE THEN 1 INCH OF CABLE TO ENSURE MINIMUM CROSSTALK. KEEP IT TWISTED.

Term
RANGE OF Stations
Definition

WIRELESSLY- HOW FAR CAN THE STATIONS BE AWAY:

300 FEET 100 METERS

THEREORETICALLY 75 METERS

Term
MODEM
Definition

MODULATES DIGITAL TO ANALOG

DEMODULATES ANALOG TO DIGITAL

MODULATE/DEMODULATE-MODEM

VOICE/SOUND

Term
FIBER OPTIC CABELING
Definition

2 TYPES:

SINGLE MODE-LONG DISTANCE

MULTI MODE-SHORT DISTANCE

62 MICRONS

Term
DISTANCE FROM EMI
Definition

ELECTRTICAL MAGNETIC INTERFERENCE

KEEP 3 FEET AWAY

Term
AMPLITUDE
Definition
SIGNAL STRENGTH OVER A GIVEN PERIOD OF TIME
Term
FDM
Definition

FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING:

WHAT PHONE COMPANIES USE

DSL, EVERYBODY GETS A FREQUENCY TO WORK WITH.

Term
CAT 5E CABELING
Definition

1 GIG

MINIMUM SUPPORT GIG ETHERNET

THEREORETICALLY

Term
ETHERNET (2)
Definition

BEFORE WE TALKED ABOUT BASEBAND.

ETHERNET EXISTS ON THE LAYER 2 OF THE OSI MODEL

Term
MULTIPLEXING
Definition

GENERAL TERM

FORM OF TRANSMISSON THAT ALLOWS MULTIPLE SIGNALS TO TRAVEL SIMULTANEOUSLY OVER 1 MEDIUM

Term
CABLE PAIRS
Definition

TO GET 1000BASE T (CAT5E)

HAVE 4 PAIRS OF WIRES, USE ALL

1000 MG BITS PER SECOND YOU NEED 4 WIRES

 

CAN YOU USE POWER OF ETHERNET AND 1000MG BITS ON CAT5E AT THE SAME TIME?

NO!

WHY? NEED ALL 4 WIRES

 

Term
Baseband
