Q2.) Discuss access methods of networking.

Also discuss all three


access methods of networking.
Q3.) What is Computer Network? What are the advantages of
computer networks?

Q4) Distinguish between LAN and WAN?


Q5) Describe co-axial cable in detail.

Q6) Differentiate between UTP and STP cable.


Q7) Write a short note on fibre optic cable.
(1) The light wave can be efficiently conducted through transparent glass
fiber cables known as optic fiber cables.

(2) The fibre optic cable is shown in following figure :

(3) The components of co-axial cable are as follows:


(a) The centre conductor of this cable is a Fibre Core that consists
of highly refined glass plastic. It is designed to transmit light signals
with little loss.
(b) The fibre is coated with cladding or gel that reflects signals
back into fibre to reduce signal loss.
(c) A plastic sheet called Jacket (Sheath) protects the fibre from
further environmental or accidental damage.
Q8) What do you mean by network topology? Explain in brief the two
basic categories of topology.

(6) Physical and logical topologies can take several forms. The most
c common are :

(a) Bus topologies

(b) Ring topologies

(c) Star topologies


Q9) Explain “Bus Topology”
Q10) Explain “Ring Topology”
Q11) Define 'Protocol'. Explain TCP/IP protocol.

(1) A protocol is defined as an agreement between


communication particle for how communication should be
proceed.

(2) Internet protocols are called TCP/IP (Transmission Control


Protocol/Internet Protocol) protocols. This protocol do not belong
any one company and technology is available to everybody.

(3) TCP/IP protocol use three types of addresses for network


addressing:

(a) Hardware or physical address is used by the data link


and' physical layers.

(b) Internet protocol address provides logical node


identification. This address is unique address assigned by
administrator expressed in four parts dotted notation.

(c) Logical node names are easier to remember than an IP


address.
Q12) Explain modem in detail.

1) Modem is modulator/demodulator. Modem is used to connect


computer to internet. Modems convert digital data to analog data
and vice-a-versa.
2) Converting one signal form to another form is called modulation
and reconverting it to original form is called as demodulation.

Q13) What is Hub ? Explain all types of hub.
1) HUB:
Hub is a connecting device in which cables can be connected
without soldering wires to centralise network traffic through a
single connecting point.
