...Ryan Heath NT1310 12/14/14 Unit 1 Assignment 1 Cell Phones: Cell phones use both data and voice networks. Although most people text now a days and rarely do people call each other. The older cell phones used voice only, they didn’t have the capability of a data network. You can also stream audio and video using your cellular network. Landline Phones: Landline phones are voice only. There is no way to use data through a landline phone. It can be used for internet but that is through a dial up connection. Landlines work within a network of central hubs that started out with a human operator connecting you to another person. SMS/Text messaging: Text messaging is a data service that allows users to send messages back and forth between their devices. You can also send pictures through text messages. Fax Machines: A fax is sent immediately gets digitized and packaged in secure TCP packets and sent to natural data Inc. Fax machines use an analog data signal. Pager: A way to notify individuals of incoming calls by tone, it uses a data signal. This was the start of the text message area. People could use a series of numbers to send messages. VOIP: Voice over IP is a phone that uses digital technology to make phone calls on the internet rather than through phone lines. A VOIP phone allows us to bypass the phone companies completely, it uses data networks. Skype/Facetime: To use these services you have to have a data network in order to get on the internet to use...

...Cell Phones – Cellphones use both voice and data communication. To give an example: a person talking on a cellphone will use “voice” communication. On the other side, “Data” technology is also used on smartphones which allow them to search the internet and download different files. Landlines – Landlines usually and more than common use voice communication. Though newer landlines have the option to use what’s called a NCID (Network Caller ID) which uses data sent over a TCP connection. SMS/Text Messaging – SMS or text messages can be used in a variety of ways. Examples include: cellphones and internet texting. SMS does not use any kind of voice technology and therefore is sent over data networks. Fax Machines – Fax machines have analog modems. This type of modem technology uses the voice network. When the receiving end gets a fax connection it listens for a digital connection that has been converted from an analog signal using a voice network. Pagers – Pagers were primarily a data network. They worked by sending numerical short messages, something that may have been a bit similar to texting but with numbers. Since the introduction of data pagers, voice pagers have also been brought into the picture. These types of pagers use the” voice” network. VOIP Phones – VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a technology that can transmit audio messages over the internet. VOIP is transferred over an internet protocol it thereby uses data networks. Something that might be worth...

...The world is connected more than ever through the use of the internet. From paying bills to shopping or enjoying leisure time on the web; taking advantage of the internet has become second nature to society. Focusing in on one specific type of networking entertainment, online gaming has become a major league sport in its own right. Online gaming allows people from all around the world to connect together to team up or fight against one another. Behind the scenes is where the real magic happens. Between the gamers sits countless devices and hardware not to mention miles and miles of land. Using Call of Duty as an example, each gamer has a copy of the map being played on installed onto their local computer. Every time the gamer moves the direction of their character, their data is sent from their machine to their router, and then out past the demarc point. On the other side of the demarc is where the service provider picks up the data and moves the data from local network to the central office (better known as the local exchange). The central office then sends the data over the MAN (metro area network) or WAN (wide area network) to continue the data to game server. If the data hasn’t reached the server yet (for example the gamer lives in Michigan and the server is in California) the data will be passed over the core (also known as long-haul) network which connects MANs and WANs of different geographies together. On the off chance the Michigan gamer decided...

...Introduction One of the most important items about gaming is there are winners and losers (in a fun and entertaining way), which influences and entices players all over the world. All of the variables involved with the networks that provide gaming platforms are so dynamic and diverse. From games that are purely for fun or learning there will be a huge market for deploying bigger networks. This is one reason networks growth should grow exponentially. Below is what I have identified as a gaming or Local Exchange network. “Retrieved from, http://www.psu.com/a018031/” 12/17/2013 Posted January 17th, 2013 at 19:30 EDT by Timothy Nunes “Retrieved from, http://www.hcl-axon.com/Our_Products/gamedge/” 12/17/2013 “Retrieved from, http://compnetworking.about.com/od/homenetworking/ig/Home-Network-Diagrams/Hybrid-Network-Diagram.htm” 12/17/13 By Bradley Mitchell References • Home Wi-Fi Security Checklist Cited in the "Handbook of Electronic Security and Digital Forensics" and other titles! • Fixing Common Internet Connection Problems There's nothing more frustrating than a broken Internet connection.

...Fixed line vs Cellular Cell phones have limited coverage area, unless in a big city with a lot cell phone towers, but there are other ways the signals can be blocked as well. Which makes a cell phone less dependable. The batteries in a cell phone need to stay charged to make or receive calls, and as long as it is charged you can use your phone any time even if you are somewhere where there is no power. Cell phone plans are usually cheaper is you are just getting a plan to talk on the phone and not a plan that includes data. A land line always works (unless it a cordless phone and the power goes out). You do not need to charge a land line phone that is connected to the wall, and you do not have to worry about a weak signal. The cost is more especially if you need to make long distance calls because that is not included in a normal plan. Voice vs Data Cell phones use both, you can use the voice and data at the same time because they no longer use the same antenna. Landlines phones use both, the key tones use data because the tones transfer as data, and you talking is using the voice SMS/text uses data, and is transferred as a message with characters over the data network Fax uses the data, when a fax is sent it gets immediately digitized and packaged in secure TCP packets and sent to natural data inc and then secure networks operation center for final delivery. Pagers use data, they receive a number via a small screen from incoming callers VOIP uses the data network...

These seven companies were established after an antitrust suit against AT&T. It split the company into seven regional companies that handle local exchange service. They are also known as “Baby Bells.” These companies handled almost all of the telephone services across the country. ILEC - Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier. This is a local telephone company that existed when AT&T was broken up into the RBOCS. It was an independent telephone company that provided telephone services in a specific geographical area. ILECs compete with CLECs. CLEC is an acronym for competitive local exchange carriers. They compete with ILECs by providing private line and special access services. They are not affiliated with the RBOCs. Some states especially encourage these companies because they are competitive and the opposite of the monopolies. MSO’s - Multiple system operators. These are defined as an operator of multiple cable television systems. This usually refers to large cable companies that provide service for multiple communities, such as Time Warner Cable, ComCast or Charter Cable. These MSOs provide television service, broadband internet services, and telephone services. ISP - Internet service provider. This is any company that provides customers direct access...

...Briannah Lawson Unit 9 Lab 1 NT 1310 May 18, 2013 Before you can begin to design a fiber optic cable design, one needs to establish with the user or network owner where the network will be built and what communications signals it will carry. (LANs or Local area network)And security systems use structure cabling systems built around well-defined industry Standards. Many campus carry backbone network used in industrial complexes or Institutions uses as long as 500 m or more cabling requiring optical fiber. Telephone networks are mainly outside the building (OSP) systems, connecting buildings over distances as short as few hundred meters to hundreds or thousands of Kilometers. Data rates for telecom are typically 2.5 to 10 gigabits per second using very high power lasers that operate exclusively over single modes fibers. Designing long distance or outside building application generally means choosing cabling containing singlemode (SM) Fiber over all other media. Many users may opt to use FTTD, as a complete fiber network because its very cost effective solution, negating the requirement for telecom rooms full switches, with data quality power and grounds, plus year-round air conditioning. Also choosing transmission equipment is the next step in designing a fiber optic network. This step will usually be cooperative venture involving the customer, who knows what kind of data they need to communicate, the desiner and installer, and the manufactures of transmission equipment...

...NT 1310 Physical Networking Andre Mosley Unit 2. Assignment 1. Service Provider Types 09-27-2012 RBOCS (RBOC) is a term describing one of the U.S. regional telephone companies (or their successors) that were created as a result of the breakup of American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T, known also as the Bell System or "Ma Bell") by a U.S. Federal Court consent decree on December 31, 1983. The seven original regional Bell operating companies were Ameritech, Bell Atlantic, BellSouth, NYNEX, Pacific Bell, Southwestern Bell, and US WEST. RBOCs are generally in competition for digital data and Internet traffic with wireless service providers and cable TV companies. RBOCs are gradually making available new telephone carrier technologies such as ISDN and DSL. ILEC An ILEC (incumbent local exchange carrier) is a telephone company in the U.S. that was providing local service ILECs include the former Bell operating companies which were grouped into holding companies known collectively as the regional Bell operating companies (RBOCs). A "local exchange" is the local "central office" of an LEC. Lines from homes and businesses terminate at a local exchange. Local exchanges connect to other local exchanges within a local access and transport area (LATA) or to interexchange carriers (IXC) such as long-distance carriers AT&T, MCI, and Sprint.

...NT 1310 Mr. Davis January 6, 2016 Unit 3 Exercise 1. Specifications – Definitions Application (in terms of cabling infrastructure) – A system the transmission method of which is supported by telecommunications cabling, such as a 100base-TX Ethernet, or digital voice. Unshielded Twisted-Pair – (UTP) a pair of copper wires twisted together with no electromagnetic shielding around them. Each wire pair is twisted many times per foot to cancel out electrical signal. Shielded Twisted-Pair – A type of twisted pair cable in which the pairs are enclosed in an outer braided shield, although individual pairs may also be shielded. Fiber-Optic Cable - An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable will be deployed. Optical fiber consists of a core and a cladding layer, selected for total internal reflection due to the difference in the refractive index between the two Dark Fiber – Dark fiber refers to unused fiber-optic cable. Often times’ companies lay more lines than what’s needed in order to curb costs of having to do it again and again. The dark strands can be leased to individuals or other companies who want to establish optical connections among their own locations. Coaxial Cable - is a type of cable for high bandwidth data transmission use that typically consists of a single copper wire...

...Demography of Germany Concepts, Data, and Methods G. Rohwer U. P¨tter o Version 3 October 2003 Fakult¨t f¨r Sozialwissenschaft a u Ruhr-Universit¨t Bochum, GB 1 a 44780 Bochum goetz.rohwer@ruhr-uni-bochum.de ulrich.poetter@ruhr-uni-bochum.de Preface This text is an introduction to concepts and methods of demographic description and analysis. The substantial focus is on the demographic development of Germany, all data refer to this country. The main reason for this focus on a single country is that we want to show how the tools of demography can actually be used for the analysis of demographic problems. The text consists of two parts. Part I introduces the conceptual framework and explains basic statistical notions. This part also includes a short chapter that explains how we speak of “models” and why we do not make a sharp distinction between “describing” and “modeling” demographic processes. Then follows Part II that deals with data and methods. In the present version of the text, we almost exclusively discuss mortality and fertility data; migration is only mentioned in Chapter 6 and briefly considered in the context of a Leslie model at the end of the text. In addition to providing a general introduction to concepts of demography, the text also intends to show how to practically work with demographic data. We therefore extensively document all the data used and explain the statistical calculations in detail. In fact, most of these calculations are quite simple;...
