Networking Module 3

The document discusses different types of network media including twisted-pair cabling, coaxial cable, and fiber-optic cable. It also covers various network hardware such as network interface cards, hubs, switches, bridges, routers, and gateways. The key difference between twisted pair cable and fiber-optic cable is that twisted pair uses copper wire for data transmission while fiber-optic cable uses light pulses through glass strands to transmit data.

Difference between Twisted Pair Cable and Fiber Optic Cable?

- Twisted pair cables are used for wire shielding and data networks while fiber optic cable
also known as an optical-fiber cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable but
containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light.

Harness

Router 3. Network is segmented by IP address.

Gateway 4. Connects two dissimilar networks.

Fiber optic cable 5. Data is transmitted with light pulses.

Network Media 6. Link that connect nodes


Network interface cards 7. Connect nodes to the media

Switches 8. Only intended node receives transmission.

Bridge 9. Segments the network on MAC addresses.
