2- In addition to the infrastructure cabling what component is used to interface the computer to the network infrastructure?

3-In addition to the infrastructure cabling what component is used to interface the computer to the network infrastructure?

4-These interfaces have a code that uniquely identifies them. What is this code?

5- What are the first six values of this code used for?

6-The infrastructure of a network has several components one of which is what allows the connection between nodes. There are several media types that make up the connections. List three?

7- There is another networking physical level technology trying to gain acceptance in about the same timeframe of Ethernet what is that?

Explanation / Answer

1 nd 6.The communication media used to link devices to form a computer network include

a.electrical cable (HomePNA, power line communication)

b.optical fiber (fiber-optic communication).

c.wireless

2 nd 3. network interface controller (NICs), repeaters, hubs, bridges, switches, routers, modems, and firewalls.

4.A media access control address (MAC address) is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications on the physical network segment.

5.The first six characters of the MAC address provide information about the device's origin. The numbers are represented in hexadecimal, a number system using base 16, with the digits 0-9 and A-F.

7.Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is a computer network technology that encapsulates Fibre Channel frames over Ethernet networks.
