Across
- 1. a transmission method where data is transmitted in both directions at the same time (4,6)
- 3. a period of time that is set and used to wait for an acknowledgement to be received
- 6. a type of encryption that uses two different keys for encryption and decryption
- 11. another type of connection that can be used to transmit data within a network
- 12. the actual data that the user is sending to the receiver
- 13. a type of error detection method that is used for data entry. A calculation is performed on the data entered to create a value. Checkdigit values are compared to see if the data entered is correct (5,5)
- 15. a type of error detection that uses acknowledgement and timeout to see if the data has arrived correctly after transmission (9,6,7)
- 17. the name given to data after transmission(6,4)
- 19. a type of error detection method that performs a calculation on the data to create a checksum value. Checksum values are compared after transmission to see if they match
- 22. the section of a packet that contains information about any error checking methods that maybe used
- 25. a message that is sent from one device to another to indicate whether data is received correctly
- 26. an industry standard that is used to transmit data
- 28. a transmission method where data is transmitted in a single direction only
- 29. a type of error detection method that adds an additional bit to each byte to create an odd or even sum (6,5)
- 30. the name given to data before encryption
- 32. the unique address that is given to a device when it is connected to a network (8,8,7)
Down
- 2. a type of algorithm that is used to encrypt data (10,3)
- 4. a type of transmission media that uses the usb method to transmit data (3,5)
- 5. a network component that examines a data packet to obtain its destination address and then forward the packet to this address
- 7. a socket that is part of a device or computer that enables you to insert a USB cable (3,4)
- 8. a type of encryption that uses the same key to encrypt and decrypt
- 9. a type of error detection method that sends a copy of the transmitted data back to the sender to be compared with the original data sent (4,5)
- 10. a method of transmitting data packets across a network. Each packet of data is able to take an individual pathway across the network (6,9)
- 14. disruption such as electromagnetism to data when its is transmitted
- 16. a section of a packet of data that contains information about the content of the packet and its destination (6,6)
- 18. a method for securing data for storage or transmission that scrambles it and makes it meaningless
- 20. a transmission method where data is transmitted in both directions but only one direction at a time (4,6)
- 21. the name a device that plugs into a usb port on a computer
- 23. a small unit of data
- 24. a collective name for using a USB cable plugged into a USB port to transfer data from one device to another. (3, 10)
- 27. a transmission method where data is sent one bit at a time down a single wire
- 30. a transmission method where data is sent multiple bits at a time down multiple wires
- 31. computers and devices that are joined together using cables or wireless technology
