Across
- 4. The arrangement of cabling and how cables connect one device to another in a network are considered:
- 9. what transmission method sends digital signals in which each bit of data is represented by a pulse of electricity or light.
- 10. is like a bus, in that devices are daisy-chained one to another, but instead of terminating each end, the cabling is brought around from the last device back to the first device to form a ring.
- 12. Ethernet can also detect whether a frame has been damaged in transit. The errorchecking code in an Ethernet frame's trailer is called a ()?
- 13. what systems use analog techniques to encode binary 1s and 0s across a continuous range of values.
- 16. the term used when electricity bounces off the end of a cable and back in the other direction is called:(__or reflection)
- 19. the extent to which signals in an Ethernet bus topology network are propagated is called()?
- 20. is a direct link between two devices. It's most often used in WANs, in which a device on a business's network has a dedicated link to a telecommunication provider.
Down
- 1. waht is the most widely used in networks containing more than just a few computers.
- 2. The path data travels between computers on a network is considered:
- 3. the media access method that Ethernet uses in half-duplex mode is()?
- 5. Point-topoint topologies are also used with wireless networks in what is called a ().
- 6. what connects eachdevice to every other device in a network?
- 7. what is by far the simplest topology and one time was the most common method for connecting computers.
- 8. the signals continue traveling along the cable and through any connecting devices until they weaken enough that they can't be detected or until they encounter a device that absorbs them. this traveling across the medium is called?
- 11. what uses two strands of fiber-optic cable, is often the best choice of netwrok technology?
- 14. what is the most common Ethernet variety?
- 15. what uses a central devices such as a hub or switch, to interconnect computers in a LAN
- 17. waht occurs if two or more devices on the smae medium transmit simultaneously.
- 18. An electrical component called a "resistor" that absorbs the signal instead of allowing it to bounce back up the wire.
