Cable is the medium through which information usually moves from one network device to another. There are several types of cable which are commonly used with LANs. In some cases, a network will utilize only one type of cable, other networks will use a variety of cable types. The type of cable chosen for a network is related to the network's topology, protocol, and size. Understanding the characteristics of different types of cable and how they relate to other aspects of a network is necessary for

KTD Consultants We are a Network Consulting Team called KTD. We have been asked to implement a system in a new multi-specialty medical practice. In this practice, they will have ultrasound imaging, MRI, EKG, and other diagnostic modalities that are digitally read on a computer screen. They would also like to include an Electronic Medical Record system such as AllScripts, EPIC, or NexGen that will need to be accessible to all employees and doctors. This will be a new satellite office for

July 28, 2013 The Benefits of Twisted Pair Cable Computer networking is the basis of the Internet and most all businesses globally. Methods of communication are available to us today which would not be possible without computer networks. Networks increase productivity by allowing computers to and users to simultaneously share data and resources. With a network setup Information is centralized, and repetition of information is avoided because it is shared throughout the network. Networks enable

Copper Cabling vs. Fiber Optic cabling The most commonly used copper cables are Cat5e and Cat6. Cat5e cabling is able to support applications requiring bandwidth up to 100MHz and is also offered in a shielded version to prevent interference. Cat6 cabling supports applications requiring bandwidth up to 250MHz and is also available in a shielded version. Also Cat6 cabling is designed to support 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet) (Oliviero, 2010). However, as cost efficient as copper cabling is compared

very limited bandwidth Fiber links offer over 1,000 times as much bandwidth over distances over 100 times further. Fiber is not that easy to install either. Pulling the cable is easy - in fact it can be pulled at 8 times the pulling tension of Cat 5 and the typical cables used include strength members and stiffeners that make it hard to kink and damage. Fiber, by the way, is a lot stronger than steel - remember they don't reinforce fiber glass boats, airplanes, or even tires now with steel - they

Michael Bowden IS3120 Unit 2 assignment 2 Speeds of today’s Ethernet and the progression of the speeds, 10 to 100Gigs over 8 years and 100Gig to 1Tb since, transmission rate will double again in about 8 years. Although this seems true, I read that Ethernet fabric will rival fiber optic transmission capabilities. We must keep in might that a network is only as fast as its slowest component. This means computers will have to continue to get faster at processing requests and switches and routers will
