Across
- 3. Wide bandwidth data transmission which transports multiple signals and traffic types.
- 5. Is an electrical or electromagnetic current that is used for carrying data from one device or network to another. It is the key component behind virtually all:
- 6. Wireless computer network that links two or more devices using wireless communication to form a local area network (LAN) within a limited area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, campus, or office building.
- 8. Group of computers that use a set of common communication protocols over digital interconnections for the purpose of sharing resources located on or provided by the network nodes.
- 9. Networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the traffic directing functions on the Internet.
- 11. Twisted pair cable for computer networks. Also used to carry other signals such as telephone and video.
Down
- 1. Transfer of information between two or more points that do not use an electrical conductor as a medium by which to perform the transfer.
- 2. Interface between radio waves propagating through space and electric currents moving in metal conductors, used with a transmitter or receiver.
- 4. Global system of interconnected computer networks that uses the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to communicate between networks and devices.
- 7. Hardware device that converts data from a digital format, intended for communication directly between devices with specialized wiring, into one suitable for a transmission medium such as telephone lines or radio.
- 10. Computer network that interconnects computers within a limited area such as a residence, school, laboratory, university campus or office building.
