The computer field is vast and encompasses a wide variety of specialties, of which networking is only one. While some specialties are growing faster than others, and networking is among the fastest growing specialties, all fields are growing quickly. Good to excellent wages and above average job security are available in all specialties.

Technical certification fills the gap between desire and experience. Passing and achieving Microsoft's Certifications, demonstrate not only your technical competency, but also your willingness and ability to master highly involved technical concepts. This gives a prospective employer the confidence necessary to continue your development as an employee in their organization. Employers in technical field are primarily looking for people with experience and the growth of the technical economy.

Data Communication
Transfer of information from one place to another
COMMUNICATION MODEL
MEDIUM SENDER RECEIVER
19
Function of NETWORK INTERFACE CARD (NIC) The primary function of a NIC is to allow the computer to communicate on the network It does this by transmitting/receiving and controlling traffic with other computers or devices on the network When transmitting, the NIC place data on the wire in the form of an electrical signal. The process is reversed on the receiving end. The NIC translates the electrical signal it receives off the wire into bits that can be read by the computer
20
Computer Network
Computer network establishes when two or more computers are physically as well as logically connected with each other for data or resource sharing.
21
Components of a Network
Physical connection Logical connection Data sharing Resource sharing

BUS Topology
A bus topology connects each computer (node) to a single segment trunk. The signal travels from one end of the bus to the other. A terminator is required at each end to absorb the signal so it does not reflect back across the bus. In a bus topology, signals are broadcast to all stations.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 28
STAR TOPOLOGY
29
STAR TOPOLOGY
All of the stations in a star topology are connected to a central unit called a hub. The hub offers a common connection for all stations on the network. Each station has its own direct cable connection to the hub. In most cases, this means more cable is required than for a bus topology. However, this makes adding or moving computers a relatively easy task; simply plug them into a cable outlet on the wall
30
RING TOPOLOGY
31
RING TOPOLOGY A ring topology consists of a set of stations connected serially by cable. In other words, its a circle or ring of computers. There are no terminated ends to the cable; the signal travels around the circle in a clockwise direction.
32
MEDIA
Transmission media is commonly classified as
BOUNDED or GUIDED or WIRE BASED
And
UNBOUNDED or UNGUIDED or WIRELESS.
33
Guided Media In Bounded or Guided media such as Cable systems. The signal travels inside a physical conductor.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 34
Unguided Media In Unbounded or Unguided media such as Wire less systems. The signal is usually transmitted through air.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 35
CABLE MEDIA
Cable is the medium through which information usually moves from one network device to another. There are several types of cable which are commonly used in networking.
36
TYPES OF CABLES 1. Coaxial Cable 2. Twisted Pair Cable (UTP/STP) 3. Fiber Optic Cable

TWISTED PAIR
It consists of two insulated copper wires that are twisted together. It can be classified in two categories.

STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) STP is same as UTP but it is covered with a shield for resistance. It is more reliable and faster also for longer distances.

FIBER OPTIC
CABLE OVERVIEW

FIBER OPTIC
Fiber-optic cable uses optical rather than electrical pulses to transmit signals.
56
Glass cladding
57
Multimode
What is Mode
A mode is a ray of light that enters the fiber at a particular angle.
58
Single-Mode
1. single-mode fiber generally uses lasers as the light-generating device 2. Single-mode fiber allows only one mode of light to propagate through the fiber.
Multimode
1. Multimode fiber uses LED as the light-generating device 2. Multimode fiber allows multiple modes of light to propagate through the fiber.
59
FEATURES
It provides fast transmission speeds over long distances. Cable length of 2 kilometers or more Not affected by electrical interference It ensures secure and reliable data transmission. It is expensive
60
REPEATER
Attenuation refers to the degradation of signal strength (amplitude) that occurs in transmissions over long distances. Shortening the transmission distance or using repeaters can help solve this problem

Network can be divided into two broad categories: PEER TO PEER CLIENT/SERVER BASED
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 65
PEER TO PEER
CLIENT-SERVER
66
FACTORS 1. Size of organization 2. Level of security required 3. Types of business 4. Amount of network traffic 5. Needs of the network users 6. Network Budget
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 68
In peer-to-peer network, there are no dedicated servers or hierarchy among the computers. All of the computers are equal and known as peers. Normally, each computer functions as both a client and a server, and there is no one assigned to be an administrator responsible for the entire network.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 69

71
Use Peer to Peer when Users are less than 10 Security is not required Future growth is minimal Close locations
73
Dont use Peer to Peer when Many no. of users Security is priority Network is expanding Remote locations
74
PEER TO PEER NETWORK IMPLEMENTATION 1. Users manage their own computers and resources. 2. Clients systems are usually located on their desktops 3. Communication medias are very simple and effective.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 75
A server is a special computer that does not function as a client or workstation. Servers are dedicated because they quickly serve request from network clients and to ensure the security of files and directories.
77

79
ADVANTAGES
Data, users and shared resources are centrally located, controlled and managed. A single USERNAME & PASSWORD is used for network access. High level of security is available and applied by Network Administrator. Thousands of users can be supported.
Fundamentals by MAZHAR IQBAL BUTT. 81
Network Classification
Often classified according to geographical size. Common Classification
LAN (Local Area Network) WAN (Wide Area Network)
82
Network Classification
LAN
(Local Area Network) Transfer data at high speed Exists in a limited geographical area Technology is generally less expensive
83
Network Classification
WAN (Wide Area Network)
Exists in an unlimited geographical area More error chances due to the distance data travels Interconnect multiple LANs More complex and Sophisticated than LANs Technology is Expensive
