Limitations - Distance • Twisted Pair Cables 100 meters (without repeater) • Thinnet (Coax) 185 meters • Thicknet (Coax) 500 meters • Optical Fiber 100 kilometers • Infared Networks (Wireless) 100 meters • Narrow-band Radio Networks 5000 square meters • DSL distance to local telephone switch • Firewire 72m (theor.) – 4.5m w/ 16 devices • USB 5 meters • RS-232 15 meters
Supporting Technology • Network Interface Cards (NIC) – cable or wireless • Hubs • Bridges • Switches • Routers • Access Points • Ethernet adapters • Coax - “Vampire Tap", (also called a Media Access Unit, or MAU), which physically punctures the wire, and a cable called the Attachment Unit Interface (AUI). The AUI runs between the MAU and the computer's network interface card (NIC). • Gateway • Repeater (to extend travel distance)
