Telecommunication Systems
Telecommunication Medium is anything that carries an electronic signal and interfaces between a sending device and a receiving device.
3
Media Types Twisted-pair wire cable (Telephone) Coaxial cable (Cable and Telephone) Fiber-optic cable (Higher Speed, Smaller) Microwave transmission (No cable, High
spd) Cellular transmission (Mobile users) Infrared transmission (Unobstructed line
of sight, Move and reinstalled)
8
Computer Network
The communications media, devices, and software needed to connect two or more computer systems and/or devices
9
Data Processing Strategies Centralized Processing: all processing
occurs in a single location or facility Decentralized Processing: processing
devices are placed at various remote locations
Distributed Processing: computers are placed at remote locations and connected via telecommunication devices
13
Client/Server
Advantages Reduce cost (potential) Improve performance Increase security
Disadvantages Increase Cost of managing network Loss of control Administration can be difficult Complex systems (Internal and External
users)
17
Terminology NOS (Network Operating System)
Allows all computers on the Network to communicate with each other
NMS (Network Management Software) Allows the network administrator to scan for
viruses and manage users facilities Communication Protocols
Rules and standards that make communication possible
18
The Internet ARPANET – Advanced
Research Project Agency, Now is called DARPA
UCAID –University Corporation for
Advanced Internet Development
Internet add hoc linkage of many networks
19
Internet Protocols Internet Protocol (IP): standard that
enables traffic to be routed from one network to another as needed
Transport Control Protocol (TCP): rules that computers on a network use to establish and break connections
Uniform Resource Locater (URL): an assigned address on the Internet for each computer
Backbone High-speed, long distance links
23

35
Virtual Private Network
Tunneling – encapsulating IP’s to send over the Internet.
Firewall – sits between the intranet and the outside internet
36
Net Issues Management Issues
Managed at the local level IAB Internet Activities Board (TCP/IP)
Service Bottlenecks Corporate intranet traffic is growing
faster then internet traffic Recapturing missing packets
