Sanchit Sharma presented a seminar on communication devices. The document discussed the history of communication dating back to 3200 BC, and outlined some key communication devices such as modems, routers, hubs, switches and mobile phones. It described that a modem modulates and demodulates signals to transmit digital data over phone lines or wirelessly. Routers make forwarding decisions based on IP addresses, while hubs and switches connect devices but switches make routing decisions based on hardware addresses. Mobile phones allow calling, texting and have additional features like cameras and web browsing. Bridges and repeaters were also discussed as connecting or boosting signals between networks.

2. COMMUNICATION DEVICES
 A communication device is a hardware device capable of
transmitting an analog or digital signal over the
telephone, other communication wire, or wirelessly.
 As for Example:-

3. HISTORY OF COMMUNICATION DEVICES
 The first means of communication was, of course, the
human voice but about 3200 BC writing was invented
in iraq and Egypt. It was invented abuot 1500 BC in
China
 The only America civilization to invent a true system
of writing were the Mayans.

4. => Advantages:
 Flexibility
 Levelling
 Documented
 Encourages reflection
 Relevance
=>Disadvantages:
 Text-based
 No physical cues
 Information overload
 Threads
 Time lag

5. Some Communication Devices are
as follow:
Modem
Router
Hub
Switch
Mobile phone

6. MODEM :-
 A Modem is a device that modulates an analog carrier
signal to encode digital information, And also
demodulates such a carrier signal to Encode the
Transmitted information.

7. ROUTERS:-
 Routers operate the network layer and therefore, make
forwarding decisions on the basis of network
addresses which are called IP (intenet protocol) or
logical

8. HUBS :-
 Hubs are sometimes called concentrators or wiring
concentrators when they are central component in a
STAR Topology because they provide a common
connection among devices.

10. SWITCH :-
 Switch is a connectivity similar to a HUB, except
switches make intelligent router decision on the basis
of layer 2 hardware addresses, where As Hubs are
dumb and do not do make any routing decisions.

11. MOBILE PHONE :-
 A mobile phone is a wireless handheld device that
allows users to make calls and send text messages,
among other features. The earliest generation of
mobile phones could only make and receive calls.
Today’s mobile phones, however, are packed with
many additional features, such as web browsers,
games, cameras, video players and even navigational
systems.
A mobile phone may also be known as a cellular
phone or simply cellphone.

13. BRIDGE :-
 Bridges are networking devices that connect
networks.
 Sometime it is necessary to divide networks, into
subnets to reduce the amount of traffic on each
larger subnet or for security reasons.
 Once divided, the bridge connects the two subnet
and manages the traffic flow between them.
 Today, network switches have largely replaced
bridges
