Across
- 3. a small computer network that connects electronic devices within a person's workspace
- 5. smallest unit of data transmitted over a network
- 7. created the WIFI standards for data transmission
- 9. a computer network that connects users and computer resources within a geographic area, typically a city or metropolitan area
- 12. First layer of OSI model and transmits data in the fomr of 0s and 1s
- 14. Contains information that allows a network to transmit a packet.
- 16. a conceptual framework that describes how networking systems communicate and send data:
- 17. a protocol that recalls the data in a computer system to prevent errors
- 18. a group of interconnected devices
- 20. also known as tailor, provides proof if data has been tampered over transmission
- 21. a universal language that uses only the numbers 0 and 1 to represent information in computers.
Down
- 1. Contains the actual data being transmitted over the network
- 2. Second layer that handles transmission errors and transmission protocols
- 4. a computer network that connects multiple local area networks (LANs) within a limited geographical area
- 6. a high-speed networking standard that transmits data in fixed-size cells, typically 53 bytes.
- 8. Physical chord used in both the first layer and second layer of the OSI model
- 10. connects devices within a network (often a local area network, or LAN*) and forwards data packets to and from those devices.
- 11. Uses virtual circuits to enable a single router to link many faraway locations.
- 13. Transmits data packets over radio frequency
- 15. device that allows your computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices to connect to the internet
- 19. device that connects two or more packet-switched networks or subnetworks
