Unit 4:
Chapter 4, Transmitting Bits
1
Objectives
 Differentiate among major types of LAN and WAN
technologies and specifications and determine how
each is used in a data network.
 Explain basic security requirements for networks.
 Install a network (wired or wireless), applying all
necessary configurations to enable desired connectivity
and controls.
 Explain the fundamentals of electrical circuits.
 Identify different types of physical cabling.

Transmitting Bits: Communication Analogy
 In networks, nodes send data to each other over link:
Sending node acts like person talking; receiving node
acts like person listening.
3
Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Electrical Circuits
 Electrical circuit must exist as complete loop of
material (medium) over which electricity can flow.
 Material used to create circuit can’t be just any material;
must be good electrical conductor (e.g., copper wire).

 Direct Current (DC) electrical circuits
 Electrical current: Amount of electricity that flows past single
point on circuit (amount of electron flow in circuit).
 Current always flows away from negative (-) lead in circuit and
towards positive (+) lead.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Frequency, Amplitude, Phase
 DC circuit (on left) and AC circuit (on right) both use 1 volt.
 DC shows constant +1 volt signal.
 AC circuit slowly rises to +1 volt, falls to 0 then falls to -1
volt (1 volt, but in opposite direction), repeating over time.
 Resulting AC wave: Sine wave

change amplitude, frequency, phase, period of AC

.

• Frequency is the rate of change with
respect to time.
• Change in a short span of time
means high frequency.
• Change over a long span of
time means low frequency.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Circuit Bit Rates
 Bit rate (link speed): Defines number of bits sent over link
per second (bps).
 Impacts how nodes send data over circuit.
Example where Encoder Changes Signal Every Bit Time

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Using Multiple Circuits
 Simplex transmissions are one way: If encoding scheme
works in only one direction (on single circuit):
 Devices must take turns using that circuit or …
 Devices must use different circuits for each direction.
 Half-duplex transmissions take turns: Node1 sends while
Node2 listens; when Node1 finishes, Node2 sends while
Node1 listens.
 Full duplex transmissions can send/receive
simultaneously: Both endpoints can send at same time
because they use multiple wire pairs.
Full Duplex Using Two Pair, One for Each Direction

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Problems with Electricity
 Noise: Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI)
 Cables help prevent effects of EMI in many ways, including
shielding.
 Twisting of wire pairs creates “cancellation” effect to help stop
EMI effect.
 Attenuation: Signals fade away over distance to point
where devices can’t interpret individual bits
 Ethernet standards limit copper links to 100 meters.
 Very important when designing network.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: LAN Standards Progression
 Ethernet has long history (developed in 1970s and is
still used today).
 IEEE standardized Ethernet in 802.3 standard in early
1980s.
 Has added many more Ethernet standards since then.
 Each standard took years to grow in marketplace and
eventually drive prices down.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
 10Base-T, 100Base-T & 1000Base-T uses Unshielded
Twisted Pair (UTP).
 Cable contains twisted pairs of wires and no added
shielding materials.
 Twisting reduces EMI effects between pairs in same
jacket and in nearby cables.
 Lack of shielding makes cables less expensive, lighter,
easier to install.
 Supports full-duplex.
Note: Twisted pair cables with shielding are called
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP).

Wires: RJ-45 Connectors, Ports
 Ethernet standards allow use of RJ-45 connectors on
twisted pair cable and matching RJ-45 ports (sockets)
on NICs, switch ports, and other devices.
 Again, RJ-45 connectors
and ports accommodate
8 wires (pins) in single row.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Cable Pinouts
 Pinouts: How each wire in cable should be connected
to each pin in connector according to Ethernet
standards.
 Wires must be in correct order so correct wires in
twisted pair send to correct direction.

number on both ends of the cable.

Sending Bits with Electricity and Copper
Wires: Cable Pinout Standards
 Ethernet uses TIA (Telecommunications Industry
Association) standards to define specific wires to use for
pinouts.
 UTP cables have four pairs of wires, each using a different
color: green, blue, orange, brown.
 Each pair has 1 wire with solid color and other one with white
stripe.

Sending Bits with Light and Fiber Optic
Cables
 Fiber optics transmission like turning light switch on and
off: ON = 1, OFF = 0.
 Endpoints agree to use same speed and same basic
encoding scheme.

Fiber construction
Sending Bits with Light and Fiber Optic
Cables
 Fiber cables contain several parts that wrap around
glass or plastic fiber core.
 Core is about as thin as
human hair.
 Fiber breaks easily without
some type of support.
 Core and cladding have direct effect on how light
travels down cable.
 Optical transmitter (laser or LED) shines light into core
to transmit data.

Cables: Transmitters
 Key technical difference between LEDs and lasers: LEDs
shine light in multiple directions; lasers shine in one
direction.
 Fiber cables come in two major categories: Multimode
(MM), single mode (SM).
 Multimode have larger
cores and work best with LED transmitters.
 Single mode have smaller
diameter cores and work
best with laser transmitters.

Cables: Ethernet LANs
 Fiber cables do not create EMI.
 Fiber links more secure.
 Example: Typical campus
LAN has employees in two
buildings in office park that
sit 150 meters apart, which
exceeds Ethernet
standards for copper
cabling. However, multimode
links can run past 200 meters.

Cables: Radio Basics
 Three facts summarize key points about why radio can
be used to wirelessly send data.
1. Radio waves have energy level that moves up and down over
time, so when graphed, waves look like sine wave.
2. Radio waves can be changed and sensed by networking
devices, including changes to frequency, amplitude, phase,
period, wavelength.
3. EM energy does not need physical medium to move.

CELLULAR TELEPHONY
Cellular telephony is designed to provide
communications between two moving units,
called mobile stations (MSs), or between
one mobile unit and one stationary unit,
often called a land unit.

Cables: WANs—Mobile Phones & Voice
Steps to place call on mobile phone:
1. Person speaks creating sound waves (as usual).
2. Phone converts sound waves into bits (as with all digital phones).
3. Phone sends
(encodes) bits
as radio waves
through air
towards cell
tower.
4. Radio equipment at tower receives (decodes) radio waves back into
original bits.
5. Rest of trip uses various technology (details not included here).

WLAN Network Interface Card
(NIC).
 Gives PC ability to connect WLAN
 Uses radio antenna that allows NIC
to send and receive data
 Most WLANs use Access Points (AP) which are small
devices that acts like small radio tower.
 All wireless user devices communicate through AP.
