3. Transmission BasicsTransmission Basics
Transmission has two meanings:
◦ Refers to process of issuing data signals on a medium
◦ Refers to progress of data signals over a medium
On a data network, information can be
transmitted via one of two methods:
◦ Analog
◦ Digital
4. Transmission BasicsTransmission Basics
Both analog and digital signals are generated
by electrical current, pressure of which is
measured in volts
In analog signals, voltage varies continuously
In digital signals, voltage turns off and on
repeatedly
5. Electronic signal that varies directly with time
changes for an infinite range of time. (
Your speech, a siren, and live music are all examples
of analog waves.
using of continuous signals to represent
information/data.
An analog signal is characterized by four fundamental
properties: amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and
phase.
Analog Signaling
6. amplitude is a measure of its strength at any given
point in time.)
frequency is a number of wave cycles in one second
(f=1/t). t=The times of wave’s amplitude cycles from
its starting point, through its highest amplitude and
its lowest amplitude.
Wavelength is a distance between corresponding
points on a wave’s cycle
phase refers to the change or movement of the
signal in the form of angle.

9. Digital signals are composed of pulses of precise,
positive voltages and zero voltages.
A pulse of positive voltage represents a 1.A pulse of
zero voltage represents a 0.
Every pulse in the digital signal is called a binary digit,
or bit.
A bit can have only one of two possible values: 1 or
0. Eight bits together form a byte.
Digital Signaling
10. using of discrete signals to represent
information/data.
Number, letters or icons are all examples of digital
signal.
Advantage:
◦ more reliable than analog transmission
◦ noise affects digital transmission less severely

12. Differences between analog & Digital
Analog signals are continuous where digital signals
are discrete
TV, some telephones, and tape recorders all use
analog signals while the digital signal is numbers,
letters or icons
15. Twisted-pair cable consists of color-coded pairs of
insulated copper wires.
Every two wires are twisted around each other to
form pairs and all the pairs are encased in a plastic
sheath.
The more twists per inch in a pair of wires, the more
resistant the pair will be to crosstalk.
It is relatively inexpensive, flexible, and easy to install.
Twisted-pair cable falls into one of two categories:
STP (shielded twisted-pair) or UTP (unshielded
twisted-pair)
Twisted Pair Cable
18. surrounded by a shielding made of a metallic
substance such as foil.
The shielding acts as a barrier to external
electromagnetic forces, thus preventing them from
affecting the signals traveling over the wire inside the
shielding
Twisted Pair Cable… STP (Shielded Twisted-Pair)
19. UTP does not contain additional shielding for the twisted
pairs.
Only consists of one or more insulated wire pairs
encased in a plastic sheath.
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
20. Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) is the most commonly
encountered type of network cable in North America
to connect hosts, workstations, and other networking
devices
21. Throughput—STP and UTP can both transmit data
at 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps (1Gbps), depending on the
grade of cabling and the transmission method in use.
Cost—STP is more expensive than UTP because it
contains more materials and it has a lower demand.
Connector—STP and UTP use RJ-45 (Registered
Jack 45) and RJ-11 (Registered Jack 11).
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
22. Noise immunity—Because of its shielding, STP is
more noise-resistant than UTP. (disebabkan ia mengandungi pelindung, STP
lebih tahan hingar(noise) daripada UTP)
Size and scalability—The maximum segment length
for both STP and UTP is 100 m, or 328 feet. (Panjang
maksimum segmen bagi kedua-dua STP dan UTP adalah 100 m, atau 328 kaki)
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
23. CAT 5e (Enhanced Category 5)—A higher-grade
version of CAT 5 wiring that contains high-quality
copper, offers a high twist ratio, and uses advanced
methods for reducing crosstalk. Enhanced CAT 5 can
support a signaling rate as high as 350 MHz, more than
triple the capability of regular CAT 5.
CAT 6 (Category 6)—A twisted-pair cable that
contains four wire pairs, each wrapped in foil
insulation.Additional foil insulation covers the bundle
of wire pairs, and a fire-resistant plastic sheath covers
the second foil layer.The foil insulation provides
excellent resistance to crosstalk and enables CAT 6 to
support a 250-MHz signaling rate and at least six
times the throughput supported by regular CAT 5.
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
24. CAT 6e (Enhanced Category 6)—A higher-grade
version of CAT 6 wiring that reduces attenuation and
crosstalk, and allows for potentially exceeding
traditional network segment length limits. CAT 6e is
capable of a 550 MHz signaling rate and can reliably
transmit data at multi-Gigabit per second rates.
CAT 7 (Category 7)—A twisted-pair cable that
contains multiple wire pairs, each surrounded by its
own shielding, then packaged in additional shielding
beneath the sheath. CAT 7 cabling is that it can
support signal rates up to 1 GHz.
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
25. CAT 5e (Enhanced Category 5)—A higher-grade
version of CAT 5 wiring that contains high-quality copper,
offers a high twist ratio, and uses advanced methods for
reducing crosstalk. Enhanced CAT 5 can support a
signaling rate as high as 350 MHz, more than triple the
capability of regular CAT 5.
CAT 6 (Category 6)—A twisted-pair cable that
contains four wire pairs, each wrapped in foil insulation.
Additional foil insulation covers the bundle of wire pairs,
and a fire-resistant plastic sheath covers the second foil
layer.The foil insulation provides excellent resistance to
crosstalk and enables CAT 6 to support a 250-MHz
signaling rate and at least six times the throughput
supported by regular CAT 5.
Twisted Pair Cable… UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair)
26. Coaxial cable consists of a central copper core
surrounded by an insulator, a braided metal shielding,
called braiding, and an outer cover, called the
sheath or jacket.
The core carries the electromagnetic signal, and the
braided metal shielding acts as both a shield against
noise.
all types have been assigned an RG (radio guide)
specification number.
Coaxial cable
27. Provides improved shielding compared to UTP, so
has a lower signal-to-noise ratio
More difficult to install
Coaxial cable
29. Have two categories: Thicknet and Thinnet.
Thicknet
◦ Its diameter is approximately 1 cm
◦ IEEE has designated Thinnet as 10BASE-5 Ethernet
◦ maximum segment length are 500 meters.
Thinnet
◦ Its diameter is approximately 0.64 cm
◦ IEEE has designated Thinnet as 10BASE-2 Ethernet
◦ maximum segment length are 185 meters (or roughly 200)

30. Fiber-optic cable, or simply fiber, contains one or
several glass or plastic fibers at its center, or core.
Surrounding the fibers is a layer of glass or plastic
called cladding.
Outside the cladding, a plastic buffer protects the
cladding and core.
Fiber-optic Cable
31. Provides improved shielding compared to UTP, so has a
lower signal-to-noise ratio and can therefore carry more
data

33. To prevent the cable from stretching, and to protect
the inner core further, strands of Kevlar (an
advanced polymeric fiber) surround the plastic buffer.
Finally, a plastic sheath covers/outer jacket the
strands of Kevlar.
Have two categories: single-mode and multimode.
Fiber-optic Cable
35. SMF (single-mode fiber) uses a narrow core (less
than 10 microns in diameter) through which light
generated by a laser travels over one path, reflecting
very little.
Because it reflects little, the light does not disperse
as the signal travels along the fiber.
accommodate high bandwidths and long distances.
Fiber-optic Cable…SMF (Single-Mode Fiber)
36. MMF (multimode fiber) contains a core with a
larger diameter than single-mode fiber (between 50
and 115 microns in diameter; the most common size
is 62.5 microns) over which many pulses of light
generated by a laser or LED travel at different angles.
It is commonly found on cables that connect a router
to a switch or a server on the backbone of a
network.
Fiber-optic Cable…MMF (Multimode Fiber)
39. Throughput—Fiber has proved reliable in
transmitting data at rates that exceed 10 Gigabits (or
10,000 Megabits) per second.
Cost—Fiber-optic cable is the most expensive
transmission medium.
Noise immunity—Because fiber does not conduct
electrical current to transmit signals, it is unaffected
by EMI.
Size and scalability—Depending on the type of
fiber-optic cable used, segment lengths from 150 to
40,000 meters.

57. Importance of the Internet Protocol (IP)Importance of the Internet Protocol (IP)
Must run Internet Protocol (IP) software to
communicate on Internet
IP protocol is one of the TCP/IP (Transmission
Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) Protocols
As Ethernet uses Frames, IP uses Packets
Each IP packet must contain a valid source and
destination IP address.
58. Importance of the Internet ProtocolImportance of the Internet Protocol
(IP)(IP)
The IP Packet (datagram)
• Has a header which
contains the source
and destination IP
addresses
• IP addresses must be
unique on the
Internet.
• Computers in homes,
small businesses and
other organizations
obtain their IP
configuration from
their ISP.
59. How ISPs Handle PacketsHow ISPs Handle Packets
Messages are divided into packets – size between 64 to 1500 bytes
for Ethernet
Downloading a single 1 MB song would require over 600 packets o
1500 bytes.
Each individual packet must have a source and destination IP
address.
Packets or datagrams contain IP address and control information
IP addresses are granted to ISPs from a regional Internet registry
(RIR)
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority: responsible for IP addressing
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers:
responsible for names and IP addressing

• IP addresses can be ‘private’ or ‘public’
• For example, computers on our school
network use private IP addresses because
they only work on our LAN
• IP addresses can also be ‘static’ (permanent)
or ‘dynamic’ (temporary)
• For example, your ISP will give your home
router a temporary IP address
• But today’s networks are smart enough to use
all kinds of IP addresses to deliver packets to
the right devices!
• Without protocols, the Internet would be
chaos!
74. Packet SwitchingPacket Switching

shared communication line, messages are divided into fixed-
sized, numbered packets
Network devices called routers are used to direct packets

75. Trace Route (Tracert)Trace Route (Tracert)
Trace Route (tracert) is a command-line diagnostic
utility that is used to determine the route a packet
uses to get to a destination.
Traces a packet from your computer to an
Internet host, showing how many hops the
packet requires to reach the host and how long
each hop takes.
Tracert determines the route by sending Internet
Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets to the
destination that you specify, either by IP address or
DNS name.
76. Using Tracert for TroubleshootingUsing Tracert for Troubleshooting
Use tracert to determine where packet traffic is
being stopped.
Tracert can be used to show routers with
configuration problems or that are offline.
It can also indicate that an incorrect IP address is
being used or that a specific network does not exist.
It can also pinpoint bottlenecks in the network.
If you're visiting a Web site and pages are appearing
slowly, you can use trace route to figure out where
the longest delays are occurring.
78. PINGPING
Stands for "Packet INternet Groper.“
An Internet utility used to determine
whether a particular IP address is
reachable online by sending out a packet
and waiting for a response.
Ping is used to test and debug a network
as well as see if a user or server is online.
79. PINGPING
The PING utility is used to see if the TCP/IP protocol is
functioning correctly on a host computer and to check
connectivity between devices.
Like tracert, PING uses the Internet Control Message
Protocol (ICMP) echo function to send a packet through
the network to another host.
If there is a good connection between the hosts, a good
return packet will be received. .
PING can also report the number of router hops
between the two computers and the amount of time it
takes for a packet to make the complete trip.
You can PING a host by DNS name or IP address
80. Using PING for TroubleshootingUsing PING for Troubleshooting
PING can be used to test a local host or a connection to
another host.
Always begin by PINGing the local computer, that is, the
computer you are currently using. You can PING the actual
machine IP address, or PING the machine using the local
loopback address of 127.0.0.1.
Once you determine that the local machine’s IP address is
functioning correctly, PING your default gateway. This will
determine whether or not you have connectivity across your
side of the network.
Once you can successfully PING the default gateway, PING a
host on the far side of the router. For example, you may
choose to PING a host on another network segment within
your own company or a popular Web site.
PING can also be used to test name resolution services
Syntax: ping IP address or domain
81. Ping resultsPing results
1. The command to ping www.psmza.edu.my four times
2. The replies took between 5 and 18 milliseconds
3. No packets were lost
4. The average ping time was 10 milliseconds
82. NslookupNslookup
Nslookup is a program that allows you to directly query
a DNS server by host name or IP address.
lets an Internet server administrator or user enter a
host name (for example, www.yahoo.com) and find
out the corresponding Internet address.
It will also do reverse name lookup and find the host
name for an IP address you specify.
83. NslookupNslookup
Nslookup sends a domain name query packet
to a designated (or defaulted) Domain Name
System (DNS) server.
Depending on the system you are using, the
default may be the local DNS name server at
your service provider, some intermediate name
server, or the root name server (at InterNIC)
for the entire domain name system hierarchy.
Syntax: nslookup IP address or domain
85. Nslookup Modes of OperationNslookup Modes of Operation
Interactive mode allows the user to query name servers
for information about various hosts and domains.
◦ Additionally, interactive mode allows you to specify
additional parameters when using nslookup.
◦ Interactive mode is entered automatically when no
arguments are given.
◦ You will know you are using interactive mode by
looking at the command prompt.
86. Nslookup Modes of OperationNslookup Modes of Operation

Noninteractive or command-line mode
◦ Used to return just the name or other requested
information for a host or domain.
◦ When noninteractive mode is used, you supply the

Twisted Pair
Modern Ethernet technology generally uses a type of copper cable known as twisted pair (TP) to interconnect devices. Because Ethernet is the foundation for most local networks, TP is the most commonly encountered type of network cabling.
Coaxial Cable
Coaxial cable is usually constructed of either copper or aluminum, and is used by cable television companies to provide service. It is also used for connecting the various components which make up satellite communication systems.
Fiber Optic
Fiber optic cables are made of glass or plastic. They have a very high bandwidth, which enables them to carry very large amounts of data. Fiber is used in backbone networks, large enterprise environments and large data centers. It is also used extensively by telephone companies.
Different connectors than other versions of UTP because its twisted pairs must be more isolated from each other to ward off crosstalk. Because of its added shielding, CAT 7
cabling is also larger and less flexible than other versions of UTP cable.
RG stands for “radio guide,” which is appropriate because coaxial cabling is used to guide radiofrequencies in broadband transmission.)
10BASE-5 - The “10” represents its throughput of 10 Mbps, the “Base” stands for baseband transmission, and the “5” represents the maximum segment length of a Thicknet cable, which is 500 meters.
10BASE-2 - the “10” representing its data transmission rate of 10 Mbps, the “Base” representing the fact that it uses baseband transmission, and the “2” representing its maximum segment length of 185 meters (or roughly 200).
