Lesson 2 Flashcards
What is the data conduit for the network
Network Media
Network Media
conduit for the network
Types of media
bound and unbound
Bound Media
copper
fiber
Uses a physical conductor Metal Glass Plastic
Unbound Media
RF
Wireless
Microwave
IR
Bounded Media conductor types
solid or braided
Shielding
braided wire or foil
Used to insulate from interference
Twisted Pair
UTP
STP
UTP
no shielding
contains four pairs
stranded or solid
inexpensive and reliable
STP
foil shielding to resist interference
Four Pairs
Stranded or solid core
More expensive
Twisted pair can come in what pairings
2 pair 4 Pair 6 Pair 25 Pair 100 Pair
Color of primary twisted pair wires
white and XXX
Color of secondary twisted pair wires
solid color

Topic C
What are the network media performance factors
Noise
Attenuation
Impedance
Signal to noise ratio decreases or increases with the transmitting distance
decreases
Attenuation increase when cable length is exceeded
True
What is impedance
electrical resistance
Media converter
changes signal to accommodate different types of media
