Transmission Media
1
Overview
Guided - wire
Unguided - wireless
Characteristics and quality determined by
medium and signal
For guided, the medium is more important
For unguided, the bandwidth produced by the
antenna is more important
Key concerns are data rate and distance
2
Design Factors
Bandwidth
Higher bandwidth gives higher data rate
Transmission impairments
Attenuation
Interference
Number of receivers
Major factor in guided media
More receivers (multi-point) introduce more
attenuation
3
Electromagnetic Spectrum
4
Guided Transmission Media
the transmission capacity depends on the
distance and on whether the medium is pointto-point or multipoint
e.g.,
Twisted Pair
Coaxial cable
Optical fiber
5
Twisted Pair
 consists of two insulated copper wires arranged in a
regular spiral pattern to minimize the electromagnetic
interference between adjacent pairs

possible
 used by common carriers as well as by private networks
 requires unobstructed line of sight between source and
receiver
 curvature of the earth requires stations (called
repeaters) to be ~30 miles apart
31

closed-circuit TV or a data link between LANs

takes to rotate
35
Satellite Transmission Links

to the satellite on an uplink
the satellite then repeats those signals on a
downlink
the broadcast nature of the downlink makes it
attractive for services such as the distribution of
television programming

43
Common Carriers
a government-regulated private company
involved in the sale of infrastructure services in
transportation and communications
required to serve all clients indiscriminately
services and prices from common carriers are
described in tariffs
44

46
T-1 Carrier
also referred to as DS-1 signaling
provides digital full-duplex transmission rates of
1.544Mbps
usually created by multiplexing 24 64-Kbps voice
or 56-Kbps data lines
higher speeds are available with T-3 (45Mbps)
[sometimes referred to a DS-3 lines; can be
multiplexed into 28 T-1 signals; T-3 consists of
672 individual channels, each of which supports
64-Kbps] and T-4 services (274Mbps)
in Europe, E-1 (2.048Mbps) is used instead of T-1
47
Integrated Services Digital

replace the analog PSTN
basic ISDN (basic rate access)
two 64Kbps bearer channels + 16Kbps data channel
(2B+D) = 144 Kbps
broadband ISDN (primary rate access)
twenty-three 64Kbps bearer channels + 64 data
channels (23B+D) = 1.536 Mbps
48
Past Criticism of ISDN

“It Still Does Nothing”
Why so much criticism?
overhyping of services before delivery
high price of equipment
delay in implementing infrastructure
incompatibility between providers' equipment.
49
ISDN Channel Definitions
B (bearer) channels
64 kbps channels that may be used to carry voice,
data, facsimile, or image
D (demand) channels
mainly intended for carrying signaling, billing and
management information to control ISDN services
(out-of-band control messages)
may be either 16 or 64 kbps
50
Two Levels of ISDN Service
basic rate interface (BRI)
2B (64 kbps) + D (16 kbps) = 144 kbps
primary rate interface (PRI)
23B (64 kbps) + D (64 kbps) = 1.536 Mbps
North American standard
30B (64 kbps) + D (64 kbps) = 1.984 Mbps
European standard
