What is Telecommunications??
 The exchange of information in any form (voice, data,
text, images, audio, video) over networks

Telecommunications and Networking
What Types of Telecommunications are there??
• Local Area Network (LAN): networks connecting information
processing devices within a limited physical area
 Star: ties end user computers to a central computer (hierarchical)
 Ring: ties local computer in a relatively equal basis
 Bus: computers share the same communications channel

• Wide Area Network (WAN): networks that covers a large
geographic area

What Types of Telecommunications are there??
• Virtual Private Network (VPN): secure
network that uses the Internet as its main
backbone network, but relies on network
firewalls, encryption, and other security
features of its Internet and intranet
connections and those of participating
organizations
• Client Server Networks: PCs and
workstations, called clients are
interconnected by local area networks
and share application processing with
network servers

What Types of Telecommunications are there??
• Network Computing: Thin clients
provide a browser-based user interface
for processing small application
programs
 A thin client, sometimes also called
a lean client, is a computer (client)
in client-server architecture
networks which depends primarily
on the central server for processing
activities.
Slide 7
Chapter

Telecommunications and Networking
What Types of Telecommunications are there??
• Peer-to-Peer: file-sharing software
connects each PC to a central server
or to another online user’s PC
 A pure peer-to-peer network does not
have the notion of clients or servers, but
only equal peer nodes that simultaneously
function as both "clients" and "servers" to
the other nodes on the network.
 Some networks and channels use a
client-server structure for some tasks (e.g.
searching) and a peer-to-peer structure
for others.

What are the components of a Telecommunications System?
• Telecommunications Processors:
 Modems (MOdulation-DEMolulation):

Telecommunications and Networking
What are the components of a Telecommunications System?
• Telecommunications Processors:
 Multiplexers: allows a single communications channel to carry simultaneous
data transmissions from many terminals
 Switches: makes connections between
telecommunications circuits in a network
 In a telecommunications network, a switch is a device that
channels incoming data from multiple input ports to the
specific output port taking data to its intended destination.
 Regular telephone services rely on circuit switching where
a switch opens a link between a sender and receiver
Slide 11

Telecommunications and Networking
What are the components of a Telecommunications System?
• Telecommunications Processors:
 Switching alternatives:
 Message Switching: a message is
transmitted a block at a time from one
switching device to another
 Packet Switching: messages are divided
into fixed or variable length packets, and
packets are sent across networks
 Cell Switching: breaks voice, video and
other data into fixed cells of 53 bytes and
routes them to their next destination in
the network

pair or fiber optic Ethernet devices
together, making them act in unison
 Gateway: connects networks using
different communications architectures
 a network node equipped for
interfacing with another network that
uses different protocols.

What are the components of a Telecommunications System?
• Telecommunications Channels: media over
which data are transmitted and received
 Twisted Wire: copper wire twisted into pairs
 From 2M bits/Second (BPS) (unshielded) to
100M BPS (Shielded)
 Coaxial Cable: sturdy copper or aluminum wire
wrapped with spacers to insulate and protect it
 From 200Mbps to 500Mbps
 Fiber Optics: one or more hair-thin filaments of
glass fiber wrapped in a protective jacket
 Up to Trillions BPS (Tbps)
 ½ inch cable can carry 500,000 Channels
 Future: Each fiber can be split into 1,000 channel
