Across
- 1. a common type of coaxial cable used in a wide variety of residential and commercial applications
- 2. Category 6 cable, commonly referred to as Cat 6, is a standardized cable for Gigabit Ethernet and other network physical layers that is backward compatible
- 4. per second abbreviated bps or bit/sec
- 6. is a twisted pair cable for carrying signals. This type of cable is used in structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet
- 7. (also known as cheapernet, thin Ethernet, thinnet, and thinwire) is a variant of Ethernet that uses thin coaxial cable
- 9. (also known as thick ethernet or thicknet) was the original commercially available variant of Ethernet. For its physical layer it used cable similar to RG-8/U
- 10. another term for latent period.
- 12. can streamline the process. A Bluetooth connection is wireless and automatic, and it has a number of interesting features that can simplify our daily lives.
- 16. Communication in both directions simultaneously, e.g. telephone calls
- 17. the range of frequencies within a given band, in particular that used for transmitting a signal
- 18. station wire, and less commonly known as VG or Voice-grade
- 19. Clock Speed
- 20. Cable that is run in the plenum spaces of buildings. In building construction, the plenum (pronounced PLEH-nuhm) is the space that is used for air circulation in heating and air conditioning systems, typically between the structural ceiling and the suspended ceiling or under a raised floor
Down
- 1. a specific type of coaxial cable, often used for low-power video and RF signal connections. The cable has a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms. The 75 ohm impedance matches a dipole antenna in free space
- 2. two or more wires running side by side and bonded, twisted, or braided together to form a single assembly
- 3. A networking standard that supports data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps
- 5. mode-optical fiber (SMF) is an optical fiber designed to carry light only directly down the fibre - the transverse mode.
- 6. Short for Category 5 Enhanced, Cat-5e network cabling is used as a cabling infrastructure for 10BASE-T (Ethernet), full duplex 100BASE-TX
- 8. A permanent virtual circuit (PVC) is a software-defined logical connection in a network such as a frame relay network
- 11. the amount of material or items passing through a system or process
- 13. allowing the transmission of signals in both directions but not simultaneously
- 14. characterized by several different modes of activity or occurrence
- 15. ethernet a term describing various technologies for transmitting Ethernet frames at a rate of a gigabit per second (1,000,000,000 bits per second), as defined by the IEEE 802.3-2008 standard
