Computer Networks and the Internet • Internet Service Providers (ISP) • Networks • WAN Wide Area Network • LAN Local Area Network • Computers • Sneakernet • Sharing • ARPA • Internet
Phone vs. Data • Point to Point • Single Address per line • All calls to a Central Office • Party (Shared) Lines
Telephone Communications Central Office USU World Logan
Central Office Trunks (Fiber and Copper) Switch Control Console Cross point Switch Subscribers (Mostly Copper Wire)
Electrical Parameters • Voltage (Electromotive Force) • Current (Amperes, # of electrons flowing) • Resistance (conversion of energy) • ohms • Impedance (Alternating Current Resistance) • Henrys (inductors), farads (capacitors)
Electrical Circuit Capacitor (Farads) • DC 6Volts Voltage Source Inductor (Henrys) Resistor (Ohms)
Components • Resistor • Turns electrical energy into heat linearly • Capacitor • Holds electrical charge, discharges logarithmically • Inductor • Holds electrical energy as magnetism, discharges logarithmically
Transmission Speeds • Cycles per second (Hertz) • Bits per second • Baud • 1GB/sec (Ethernet) • 100MB/sec (Ethernet) • 10MB/sec (Ethernet) • 1.544MB/sec (DS1)
Twisted Pair Transmission Line • Category 3 • Category 5 (More twists per inch)
Transmission Line details • Characteristic Impedance • Termination • Length Limitations • Loss due to • Resistance • Crosstalk • Mutual Inductance • Radiation
Transmission Line Losses • Measured in DECIBELS • Ratio of input voltage/current to output voltage/current • DB = 20log(voltage1/voltage2) • 20 DB is 100 volts in and 10 volts out
Fiber Optics • Single Mode • Multimode Light Detector Light Source Light Detector
Network Topologies • Bus • Simple but can be failure prone • Star • Simple, uses more wire than Bus, less failure prone • Ring • Like Bus system • Mesh • Redundant but complicated
Airplane Trip • Ticket (purchased) Ticket (complain) • Baggage (check) Baggage (claim) • Gates (load) Gates (unload) • Takeoff Landing • Routing Routing • Routing

Physical Layer • Operates on the wire using the following standards: • Fiber Optic (long distances) • Ethernet (twisted pair, fiber, coax) • PPP (twisted pair phone lines)
Link Layer • Operates using the following standards: • Ethernet protocol • Most LANS • PPP (Point to Point Protocol) • Phones Lines • DSL
Network Layer • Operates using the following standards: • TCP/IP (Tranmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol • IPX (Internet Packet Exchange) • AppleTalk
