NETWORKING DEVICE

 Computer networking devices are units that

mediate data in a computer network. Computer
networking devices are also called network
equipment, Intermediate Systems (IS) or
Interworking Unit (IWU). Units which are the last
receiver or generate data are called hosts or data
terminal equipment.
 COMMON BASIC NETWORKING
DEVICES:

 Router
 Switch
 Hub
 Network Card – media on PC
 Modem - media on PC
 DVB - media on PC
MEDIA

 Wired
 Twisted Pair – UTP
 Coaxial
 Fiber
 Wireless
 Microwave
 Satellite
 Router: a specialized network device that
determines the next network point to which it can
forward a data packet towards the destination of
the packet. Unlike a gateway, it cannot interface
different protocols. Works on OSI layer 3.
 Connecting different segment
 Have different interfaces (Ethernet, WAN-Serial,
Fiber, etc)
 Table Routing
SWITCH
 Switch direct the message from appropriate
port (directs a message from the input port to
the desired output port).
 More expensive but better bandwidth utilization
HUB
 Hub provide connection to all ports (i.e. in one
port and out all other ports).
 Passive hub – no signal regeneration
 Active hub – provide signal regeneration
NETWORK CARD
 a piece of computer hardware to allow the attached
computer to communicate by network
MODEM
 Allows modems of different vendors to operate
together
 Define How modems operate:
 Modulation techniques
 Data compression technique
 Error detection strategy

DVB / IP TECH
 The Digital Video Broadcast over Internet Protocol
(DVB/IP) system is functionally an IP-over-Ethernet
simplex satellite service that incorporates frame-relay
type traffic management. At its core, DVB is a modem-
on-a-chip, plus an intelligent multiplexer. The antenna
is typically a CATV dish, 2.4 - 3.8 meters in diameter
(for C-band), or 0.6 -1.8 meters (for Ku-band).

TWISTED PAIR
 Two wired wrapped in a twisted fashion
 Designed to reduce cross-talk due inductance
 Still subject to interference from stray signal
 Primarily used for local loop connections and LANs
 Comparatively narrow bandwidth
UTP – UNSHIELDED TWISTED
PAIR
 Pair 1
 White/blue
 Blue
 Pair 2
 White/Orange
 Orange
 Pair 3
 White/Green
 Green
 Pair 4
 White/Brown
 Brown
 RJ45 Connector
COAXIAL
 Center lead conducts the signal
 Protected by insulation and braded wire
 Used mostly for television and connections to antenna
 Larger Bandwidth but large in size
FIBER OPTICAL
 Signal transmitted by photos rather than
electrons
 Dramatically higher bandwidth
 Used mostly for backbone communication
connections, very high speed LANs and fast
network connections
