Practice Teachers Lessons Flashcards
commonly known as ethernet cable, serves a single distinct function.
Local Area Network or LAN Cable
used to crimp or to bit RJ45 pins to UTP cables.
Crimping Tool
tests the ethernet cable for the installation in the network.
LAN Tester
a common cable used in computer networking, typically made up of multiple twisted-pairs of wires enclosed in a protective sheath to form a cable.
UTP Cable
an eight-wire connector used to conenct computers by UTP cables to a network.
RJ45 or Registered Jack 45
used to remove the outer sheath of the wire.
Wire Stripper
the process of creating a cable used to build a network that connects computers or other network gadgets, and it involves several steps to ensure reliable and efficient data communication between devices.
Ethernet Cabling
this cable type involves switching the wire pairs, resulting in the connection of distinct pairs together.
Crossover
this type has identical wiring in both ends.

Communication tools that are essential for interaction between hardware on a computer network.
Network Devices
Purposes of Network Devices
- Managing Traffic
- Device Connectivity
- Network Segmentation
devices like routers and firewalls manage and control traffic flow
Managing traffic
devices like routers and gateways play a crucial role in connecting different networks
Device connectivity
networks devices enable the segmentation of networks into distinct zones or subnets
Network Segmentation
A device that allows wireless devices, like smartphone and laptops, to connect to a wired network. It creates a Wi-fi network, enabling wireless devices to connect to the internet or each other.
Access Point
A device that forwards data packets along networks. It connects multiple packet-switched networks or subnetworks. Managing traffic between networks allowing multiple devices to share the same internet connection.
Router
A device that enables multiple communication networks or network segments to be combined into a single, unified network. When the signal weakens, it is copied and regenerated at star topology connectors to restore its original strength.
Bridge
A device that monitors and controls the flow of data between your computer or network and the internet. It acts as a barrier, blocking unauthorized access while allowing trusted data to pass through.
Firewall
Amplifies received signals and extends signal transmission over longer distances. It extend a network’s reach, restore weak or damaged signals, and provide access to otherwise accessible nodes.
Repeater
A network device that connects multiple computer networking devices together, creating a single network segment. It works by amplifying and retransmitting incoming signals.
Hub
A multiport bridge with a buffer and a design that can boost its efficiency and performance. It enhance network efficiency and security by making eme decision using TCP/IP eme headers.
