1. Computer network and Communication
Across
- 1. packets Small units of data into which larger files are broken before being transmitted through a network and reassembled at the destination.
- 4. Often thought of as the width of a pipe, this represents the maximum capacity at which data can be transferred over a network connection in a given time.
- 6. Media (or Guided Media) A communication channel where signals or data are transmitted through physical cables like twisted pair or fiber-optic.
- 9. The process of sending or receiving information between two or more points.
- 11. A communication mode where data transmission is possible in only one direction, such as with radio or television broadcasts.
- 13. A mode of transmission where data can be sent and received in both directions simultaneously, such as in video chat.
- 14. The actual rate of successful data transfer from one location to another within a specific time, usually lower than the theoretical capacity.
Down
- 2. Pair Cable An older and commonly used transmission medium consisting of two copper wires twisted together to minimize crosstalk and external noise.
- 3. A high-speed, "always-on" Internet connection that utilizes a wide range of frequencies to transmit large amounts of data.
- 5. The component in a communication system that converts a message into a signal suitable for transmission (e.g., a microphone).
- 7. Internet A method of providing Internet access that uses communication satellites, often used in remote areas but characterized by higher latency.
- 8. A transmission mode where data flows in both directions, but only one at a time, such as a walkie-talkie.
- 9. 8 According to EIA/TIA standards, this category of cable supports data speeds of 40 Gbps and higher.
- 10. The number of times a signal oscillates or cycles per second, measured in Hertz (Hz).
- 12. The fifth generation of mobile networks, introduced around 2020, which supports technologies like AI, IoT, and autonomous vehicles with ultra-fast speeds.
