CHAPTER 7 APPENDIX. Glossary of Terms NUMBERS 10BASE-T 10BASE-T is Ethernet over UTP Category III, IV, or V unshielded twisted-pair media. 100BASE-TX The two-pair twisted-media implementation of 100BASE-T is called 100BASE-TX. A ADPCM Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation, a new technology improved from PCM, which encodes analog sounds to digital form.
Communication Communication has four components: sender, receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices and application tasks and processes communicate messages to each other over media. They represent the sender and receivers. The data they send is the message. The cabling or transmission method they use is the medium. Connection In networking, two devices establish a connection to communicate with each other.
Ethernet The most popular LAN communication technology. There are a variety of types of Ethernet, including 10Mbps (traditional Ethernet), 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet), and 1,000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). Most Ethernet networks use Category 5 cabling to carry information, in the form of electrical signals, between devices. Ethernet is an implementation of CSMA/CD that operates in a bus or star topology.
same software you will find on the public Internet. The only difference is that an Intranet is used for internal usage only. Internet The Internet is a globally linked system of computers that are logically connected based on the Internet Protocol (IP). The Internet provides different ways to access private and public information worldwide.
L LAN Local Area Network a computer network that spans a relatively small area sharing common resources. Most LANs are confined to a single building or group of buildings. M MJPEG MJPEG (Motion JPEG) composes a moving image by storing each frame of a moving picture sequence in JPEG compression, and then decompressing and displaying each frame at rapid speed to show the moving picture.
PCM PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) is a technique for converting analog audio signals into digital form for transmission. PING Packet Internet Groper, a utility used to determine whether a specific IP address is accessible. It functions by sending a packet to the specified address and waits for a reply. It is primarily used to troubleshoot Internet connections. PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet.
RTP RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is a data transfer protocol defined to deliver live media to the clients at the same time, which defines the transmission of video and audio files in real time for Internet applications. RTSP RTSP (Real-time Streaming Protocol) is the standard used to transmit stored media to the client(s) at the same time, which provides client controls for random access to the content stream.
U UDP The User Datagram Protocol is a connectionless protocol that resides above IP in the TCP/IP suite User Name The USERNAME is the unique name assigned to each person who has access to the LAN. Utility It is a program that performs a specific task. UTP Unshielded twisted-pair. UTP is a form of cable used by all access methods. It consists of several pairs of wires enclosed in an unshielded sheath. W WAN Wide-Area Network.
