100
On this network all of the computers and devices connect to a central device
What is a star network
100
These are the guidelines that specify the way computers access a device.
What is a network standard.
100
This is a type of always-on physical connection that is established between two communications devices.
What is a dedicated line
100
This network connects computers and devices in a limited geographical area such as a home, school, office building.
What is a LAN
100
This is the material or substances capable of carrying one or more communication signals.
What is transmission media
200
This network forms a closed loop with all computers and devices.
What is a ring network
200
This network is relatively inexpensive and easy to install and maintain. Because of this, it is the most popular network standard for LANs.
What is ethernet.
200
This is a type of line that supports faster transfer rates when receiving data than when sending.
What is ADSL, asymmetric digital subscriber line.
200
This network connects computers over a large geographic area such as city, country or the world.
What is a WAN
200
A cat5 (ethernet) cable would be classified as this type of cable
What is a twisted pair
300
This network consists of a single central cable, to which all computers and other devices connect.
What is a bus network.
300
This standard specifies that computers and devices on the network share or pass a special signal, called a token.
What is a token ring.
300
A line that can carry more than one signal.
What is multiplexing.
300
The configuration of computers, devices and media on the network is called a
What is a network architecture.
300
This type of cable consists of dozens or hundreds of thin strands of glass or plastic that use light to transmit signals.
What is fiber optic
400
Which network uses both a star and bus topology?
What is a tree network.
400
Which protocol divides data into packets before transmitting.
What is TCP/IP
400
This device learn the location of the devices that they are connected to and is more efficient than it's counterpart.
What is a switch.
400
This refers to the layout of the computers and devices on a network.
What is a network topology
400
Which type of cellular radio transmission supports data transfer up to 100 Mbps.
What is 4G
500
On this network every node is physically connected to at least 2 nodes which provides greater performance and reliability.
What is a mesh network.
500
Which network standard is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
What is Wi-Fi
500
The transfer rate of this communication line is 1.544 Mbps and has 24 channels to carry signals.
What is a T1
500
On this network all of the computers and devices are connected to a central device.
What is a star network
500
Bluetooth, UWB, Wi-Fi and WiMax all use this type of wireless transmission media.
What is broadcast radio
