Q

coaxial vable

A

contains a central conducter wire surronded by an insulating material which is surronded by a braided meal sheild
it is called coaxil because the center wire and braided metel sheild share a centerline

coaxlee sheilds data transmission from interference

early bus topologies used coaxel cable usuing bnc connectors

today it is used a cable modem to connect too an isp which use an F connector the same used for TVS

Q

EXAM TIP Coaxial cabling is also very popular with satellite dishes, overthe-air antennas, and even some home video devices. This book covers
cable and other Internet connectivity options in great detail in Chapter 13,
“Remote Connectivity.”

Q

EXAM TIP The CompTIA Network+ exam is only interested in your
knowledge of Cat 3, Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6a, and Cat 7 cables. Further,
you’ll see the abbreviation for category in all caps, so CAT 5e or CAT 6a.
(In the field you’ll see category represented in both ways.)

Q

current wired networks use 4 pair 8p8c connecters thatmost people refer to as a rj45

A
18
Q

EXAM TIP CompTIA follows the common usage for networking cable
connectors. You will not see 8P8C on the exam; you will only see RJ-45.

A
19
Q

fiber-optic cable has four components: the glass fiber itself (the core); the cladding, which
is the part that makes the light reflect down the fiber; buffer material to give strength; and
the insulating jacket (Figure 2-22).

A
20
Q

The most common fiber-optic
cable size is 62.5/125 µµm.

A
21
Q

use pairs of fibers one for sending one for reciving which create dublex fiber oprtic cabling

Q

EXAM TIP Concentrate on UTP—that’s where the hardest CompTIA
Network+ exam questions come into play. Don’t forget to give coax, STP,
and fiber-optic a quick pass, and make sure you understand the reasons
for picking one type of cabling over another. Even though the CompTIA
Network+ exam does not test too hard on cabling, this is important
information that you will use in real networking.

Q

netowrking industry standards ieeee

A

institute of electricals and elctronics engineers
provided a varity of cables as no single cable type could work in every situation

Q

IEEE 802.1 Higher Layer LAN Protocols (with many subcommittees, like 802.1X for
port-based network access control)
IEEE 802.3 Ethernet (with a ton of subcommittees, such as 802.3ae for 10-Gigabit Ethernet)
IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN (WLAN); specifications, such as Wi-Fi, and many subcommittees
IEEE 802.15 Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN)
IEEE 802.18 Radio Regulatory Technical Advisory Group
IEEE 802.19 Wireless Coexistence Working Group
