NETWORKS AND
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
• Telecommunication System—Enable the
transmission of data over public or private
networks
• Network—A communications, data exchange,
and resource-sharing system created by linking
two or more computers and establishing
standards, or protocols, so that they can work
together
B5-3
NETWORK BASICS
• The three types of networks include:
– Local Area Network (LAN)
– Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
– Wide Area Network (WAN)
• Networks are differentiated by the following:
–
–
–
–
Architecture—peer-to-peer, client/server
Topology—bus, star, ring, hybrid, wireless
Protocols—Ethernet, TCP/IP
Media—coaxial, twisted-pair, fiber-optic
B5-4
ARCHITECTURE
• Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Network—Any network without a
central file server and in which all computers in the network
have access to the public files located on all other
workstations
• Client—A computer that is designed to request information
from a server
• Server—A computer that is dedicated to providing
information in response to external requests
– Client/Server Network—Model for applications in which
the bulk of the back-end processing takes place on a
server, while the front-end processing is handled by the
clients
B5-5
CLIENT/SERVER NETWORKS
• Network Operating System (NOS)—The
operating system that runs a network, steering
information between computers and managing
security and users
• Packet-Switching—Occurs when the sending
computer divides a message into a number of
efficiently sized units called packets, each of which
contains the address of the destination computer
• Router—An intelligent connecting device that
examines each packet of data it receives and then
decides which way to send it onward toward its
destination
B5-6
TOPOLOGY
• Network Topology—Refers to the
geometric arrangement of the actual
physical organization of the computers
(and other network devices) in a network
– Bus
– Star
– Ring
– Hybrid
– Wireless
B5-7
TOPOLOGY
B5-8
PROTOCOLS
• Protocol—A standard that specifies the format of
data as well as the rules to be followed during
transmission
• Interoperability—The capability of two or more
computer systems to share data and resources,
even though they are made by different
manufacturers
• Ethernet—physical and data layer technology for
LAN networking
B5-9
TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL/INTERNET
PROTOCOL
• Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP)—Provides the technical foundation for the
public Internet as well as for large numbers of private
network
• TCP/IP Applications:
– File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
– Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
– Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
B5-10
MEDIA
• Wire Media—Transmission material manufactured
so that signals will be confined to a narrow path
and will behave predictably
• Three most commonly used types include:
1. Twisted-Pair Wiring
2. Coaxial Cable
3. Fiber Optic (or Optical Fiber)
• Wireless Media—Natural parts of the earth’s
environment that can be used as physical paths to
carry electrical signals
B5-11
WIRE MEDIA
B5-12
USING NETWORKS & TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOR
BUSINESS ADVANTAGES
• Voice over IP (VoIP)—Uses TCP/IP technology to
transmit voice calls over long-distance telephone
lines
• Virtual Private Network (VPN)—A way to use the
public telecommunication infrastructure (e.g.,
Internet) to provide secure access to an
organization’s network
• Valued-Added Network (VAN)—A private
network, provided by a third party, for exchanging
information through a high capacity connection
B5-13
USING NETWORKS & TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOR
BUSINESS ADVANTAGES
B5-14
USING NETWORKS & TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOR
BUSINESS ADVANTAGES
• Increasing the speed of business:
– Bandwidth—The difference between the highest and
lowest frequencies that can be transmitted on a single
medium
– Broadband—High-speed Internet connections
transmitting data at speed greater than 200 Kbps
• Securing business networks
– Data sharing
