human hair
• USB, serial, parallel, SCSI, and Firewire
connections
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 232
15
What are the options for
wireless networks?
• Data can also travel airways in form of RF signals sent
and received by a transceiver
• Microwaves provide another option for transporting
data
• Radio and microwave transmissions cannot be bent
around the surface of the earth to reach far-flung
towers
• Communications satellites play an important part in
long-distance communications
• A transponder on the satellite receives the signal,
amplifies it, and retransmits the signal back to a
ground station on earth
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 233
16
What’s the difference between
analog and digital signals?
• Digital signals are transmitted as bits
using a limited set of frequencies
• Analog signals can assume any value
within a specified range of frequencies
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 233
17
What’s bandwidth?
• The transmission capacity of a
communications channel

data from one network node to another
• The best-known protocol is probably
TCP/IP
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 235
21
What’s a packet?
• When you transmit data, it is broken up into
small pieces called packets
• A packet is a parcel of data that is sent
across a network
– Has the address of its sender
– Has the address of the destination
– Has some data
• When they reach the destination, they are
put back together into original form
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 235
22
How does a protocol initiate
a transmission?
• A synchronous protocol coordinates
sending and receiving by using a clock
signal
• Asynchronous protocols require the
transmitting computer to send a start bit
that indicates the beginning of a packet
– Handshaking
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 236
23
How do protocols regulate
the flow of data?
• Simplex – signal travels in only one
direction
• Half duplex – signal travels in both
directions, but only one direction at a
time
• Full duplex – signal travels in both
directions at the same time

addresses as the IP addressing scheme
provides approximately only 4.3 billion
unique addresses
Chapter 5: Internet and LAN Technology
Page 250
52
Domain Names: What’s a
domain name?
• People find it difficult to remember long strings
of numbers, so host computers also have
names called domain names
