Transmission Mediums in Computer Networks ( Tentxa layer Network )

Transmission Mediums in Computer Networks

Data is represented by computers and other telecommunication devices using signals. Signals are transmitted in the form of electromagnetic energy from one device to another. Electromagnetic signals travel through vacuum, air or other transmission mediums to travel between one point to another(from source to receiver).
Electromagnetic energy (includes electrical and magnetic fields) includes power, voice, visible light, radio waves, ultraviolet light, gamma rays etc.
Transmission medium is the means through which we send our data from one place to another. The first layer (physical layer) of Communication Networks OSI Seven layer model is dedicated to the transmission media, we will study the OSI Model later.
classification of Transmission mediums

Factors to be considered while choosing Transmission Medium

  1. Transmission Rate
  2. Cost and Ease of Installation
  3. Resistance to Environmental Conditions
  4. Distances

Tentxa layer Network ( Connection Oriented and Connectionless Services )

Connection Oriented and Connectionless Services These are the two services given by the layers to layers above them. These services are : Connection Oriented Service Connectionless Services Connection Oriented Services There is a sequence of operation to be followed by the users of connection oriented service. These are : Connection is established Information is sent Connection is released In connection oriented service we have to establish a connection before starting the communication. When connection is established we send the message or the information and then we release the connection. Connection oriented service is more reliable than connectionless service. We can send the message in connection oriented service if there is an error at the receivers end. Example of connection oriented is TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) protocol. Connection Less Services It is similar to the postal services, as it carries the full address where the message (letter) i...
