Question
Answer
serial backbone   two or more internetworking devices connected to each other by a single cable  
🗑
daisy chain   linked series of devices  
🗑
distributed backbone   a number of connectivity devices connected to a series of central connectivity devices  
🗑
collapsed backbone   uses as a router or switch as the single central connection point for multiple subnetworks  
🗑
parallel backbone    
🗑
circuit switching   a connection is established between two network nodes before they begin transmitting data.  
🗑
message switching   establishes a connection between two devices, transfers the information to the second device,and then breaks the connection  
🗑
packet switching   breaks data into packets before they are transported  
🗑
multiprotocol label switching   enables multiple types of layer 3 protocols to travel over any one of several connection oriented layer 2 protocols.  
🗑
bus topology   single cable that connects all nodes on a network without intervening connectivity devices  
🗑
ring topology   each node is connected to the two nearest nodes so that the entire network forms a circle  
🗑
star topology   every node on the network is connected thru a central device,  
🗑
logical topology   refers to the way in which data is transmitted between nodes  
🗑
bus logical topology   signals travel from one network device to all other devices on the network  
🗑
ring logical topology   signals follow a circular path between sender and receiver  
🗑
ring logical toplogy   signals follow a circular path even as they travel thru connecticity devices  
🗑
star wired ring topology   uses the physical layout of a star in conjunction with the ring logical topology  
🗑
star wired bus topology   a group of workstations are star connected to connectivity devices and then networked via a single bus  
🗑
Base means (10Base-T)   indicates that it uses baseband transmission  
🗑
T means (10Base-T)   twisted pair  
🗑
10 means (10Base-T)   its maximum throughput of 10Mbs  
🗑
10Base-T   ethernet standards for copper cable one pair of wires in the UTP cable is used for transmission;a second pair is for reception  
🗑
5-4-3 rule   between two communicating nodes,the network cannot contain more than 5 network segments connected by four repeating devices and no more then three of the segments can be populated  
🗑
100Base-T IEEE 802.3u   ethernet standards for copper cable upgraded version of 10Base-T uses two of the four pairs of wires to transmit and receive signals known as Fast Ethernet still uses baseband transmission,star topology,RJ45 connectors 100 megabits per second  
🗑
1000Base-T IEEE 802.3ab   ethernet standards for copper cable uses all four pairs of wire to transmit and receive signals  
🗑
10GBase-T IEEE 802.3an   ethernet standards for copper cable makes very fast data transmission available at a lower cose then fiber optic cable distance limitation  
🗑
100Base-FX   ethernet standards for fiber optic cable uses star topology with its repeaters in a bus fashion  
🗑
1000Base-LX IEEE 802.3z   ethernet standards for fiber optic cable longer reach then any other 1 gigabit technology available. can use one repeater between segments  
🗑
1000Base-SX   ethernet standards for fiber optic cable relies on only one multi mode fiber optic cable,shorter in length,  
🗑
10GBase-SR   10-Gigabit fiber-optic standards  
🗑
10GBase-SW   10-Gigabit fiber-optic standards  
🗑
