Q

Describe Layer 1 the PHYSICAL Layer

A

this is where bits are transmitted across the network and includes all the physical
and electrical characteristics of this network. So, this is going to tell us whether we’re using an ethernet network, whether we’re using fiber or copper cables,
whether we’re using Cat 5 or Cat 6, and even if we’re using radio frequency in the case of Wi-Fi. Regardless of which method we’re using to send our data across this first layer, it’s always going to occur as Binary BITS. 1s and 0s

The Physical Layer also includes all the different Physical Topologies.

Q

Describe Encapsulation.

A

Encapsulation is the process of wrapping data with protocol information at each layer of the OSI model as it passes down the networking stack. Layer 7–1

Q

Describe Decapsulation

A

Decapsulation is the process of removing that protocol information layer by layer
as the data unpacks itself on the receiving end. Layer 1–7

Q

What is Transition Modulation

A

Transition modulation is a change from one state to another. For example from a 1 Bit to a 0 Bit with the use of electrical voltage or a fiber light.
