Structured Cabling & Networking

Structured cabling, is a standardized cabling system designed to carry voice, data and video signals in a commercial or residential environment. Traditionally, cabling has focused on unshielded twisted pair cable as used in Ethernet networks.

A computer network is a network that connects computers and devices in a limited geographical area such as home, school, computer laboratory, office building, or closely positioned group of buildings and allows sharing of resources and information among devices connected to the network.

Computer networks can be used for several purposes:

Facilitating communications:
Using a network, people can communicate efficiently and easily via e-mail, instant messaging, chat rooms, telephone, video telephone calls, and video conferencing.

Sharing hardware:
In a networked environment, each computer on a network can access and use hardware on the network. Suppose several personal computers on a network each require the use of a laser printer. If the personal computers and a laser printer are connected to a network, each user can then access the laser printer on the network, as they need it.

Sharing files, data, and information:
In a network environment, any authorized user can access data and information stored on other computers on the network. The capability of providing access to data and information on shared storage devices is an important feature of many networks.

Sharing software:
Users connected to a network can access application programs on the network.

Network classification & Connection method

Computer networks can be classified according to the hardware and software technology that is used to interconnect the individual devices in the network, such as Ethernet, Wireless LAN, Optical Fiber.

Ethernet uses physical wiring to connect devices. Frequently deployed devices include hubs, switches, bridges and/or routers. Twisted pair wire is the most widely used medium for telecommunication. Twisted-pair wires are ordinary telephone wires which consist of two insulated copper wires twisted into pairs and are used for both voice and data transmission. The transmission speed ranges from 2 million bits per second to 100 million bits per second.

Wireless LAN technology is designed to connect devices without wiring. These devices use radio waves or infrared signals as a transmission medium.

Optical fiber cable consists of one or more filaments of glass fiber wrapped in protective layers. It transmits light which can travel over extended distances without signal loss. Fiber-optic cables are not affected by electromagnetic radiation. Transmission speed may reach trillions of bits per second. The transmission speed of fiber optics is hundreds of times faster than for coaxial cables and thousands of times faster than for twisted-pair wire.
