Question

1.List the available residential access technologies in your city. For each type of access, provide the advertised downstream rate, upstream rate, and monthly price.(charleston,South Carolina) 2.What advantage does a circuit-switched network have over a packet-switched network? Whatadvantages does TDM have over FDM in a circuit-switched network? 3.What is a client program? Whatis a server program? Does a server program request and receiveservices from a client program? 1.List the available residential access technologies in your city.

Explanation / Answer

2)

A circuit-switched network can guarantee a certain amount of end-to-end bandwidth for the duration of a call. Most packet-switched networks today (including the Internet) cannot make any end-to-end guarantees for bandwidth.


3)

1.A circuit-switched network can guarantee a certain amount of end-toend bandwidth for the duration of a call, but packet-switched networks cannot make any end-to-end guarantees for bandwidth.
2.In TDM each signal uses all of the bandwidth some of the time, TDM provides greater flexibility and efficiency, by dynamically allocating more time periods to the signals that need more of the bandwidth, while reducing the time periods to those signals that do not need it. FDM lacks this type of flexibility, as it cannot dynamically change the width of the allocated frequency.
