SETUP COMPUTER NETWORK

It covers the outcomes required in setting-up computers

networks for LANs and small-office home-office (SOHO)
systems. It consists of competencies to install network cables,
set network configuration, set router/Wi-Fi/ wireless access
point/repeater configuration as well as to inspect and test the
configured computer networks.

approximately (Fluctuation in currents &
0.43 cm(0.17 inches) voltages) and interference
• Easy to install inexpensive than other types of
(Less per meter) networking media

conductor that
surrounds single inner
wire

18
FIBER-OPTIC
Cable
• Consist of two fibers encased in separate sheaths

buffer material, plastic shield (Kevlar-outer jacket)
● Kevlar furnishes additional cushioning and protection
for the fragile, hair-thin glass fiber
• Required by codes, stainless-steel wire
• Most expensive supports line speeds of more than 1 Gbps

19
Two types of FIBER-OPTIC Cable
SINGLE-MODE MULTI-MODE
- allows only one mode - allows multiple mode of light
wavelength - Workgroup application and
- higher bandwidth and greater intrabuilding applications
distances than multimode - Light-emitting diodes (LED)
- more expensive light-generating device
- Maximum cable length more - Maximum length is 2KM
than 10km (32808.4 feet - (6561.7 ft)
Different transport media impact on the speed & data transfer

INTRODUCTION
• Different networking devices have different roles to play
in a computer network.
• Different segment in performing of the computer
network
• New series after the network topology

29
HUB
● Enable computer on the network to
communicate
● Each computer plugs into hubs with
an Ethernet cable
● Information sent from one computer
● Least complex
to another
& least
● Send and Receive information
expensive
● Slower than switches
30
HUB
Two Categories:
ACTIVE HUB:
Smarter than passive hubs
Regenerate, Concentrate and
strengthen the signal before sending
them to destination
Repeaters

31
HUB
Two Categories:
PASSIVE HUB:
Point contact for the wires to build
in the physical network
Nothing to do with modifying the
signals

32
SWITCHES
Same way as hubs but they can
identify the intended destination
for the information that they
receive.
Send & receive information at the
same time.
Faster than hub
Cost a little more than hubs

Ethernet network
-When you connect to the internet
wirelessly using a public wireless
network in an airport, coffee shop
or hotel you are usually
connecting through an Access
