• PAGING SYSTEM: Small page beeps
when receives short message
• CELLULAR TELEPHONE: Device
uses radio waves to reach antennas
within areas called cells
• MOBILE DATA NETWORKS: Radio based data network using hand-held
computers. cheap, efficient
*
WIRELESS TRANSMISSION
TECHNOLOGIES
• PERSONAL COMMUNICATION SERVICE:
Cellular; lower power; higher frequency.
Smaller phones not shielded by buildings,
tunnels
• PERSONAL DIGITAL ASSISTANT: Pen
sized, hand-held, digital communicator
• SMART PHONE: Wireless, voice, text,
Internet
*
9.15
COMMUNICATIONS
CHANNELS
• TRANSMISSION SPEED: Bits per
Second (BPS) or Baud

LOCAL NETWORKS
• PRIVATE BRANCH EXCHANGE (PBX):
firm’s central switching system
• LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN): dedicated
channels; limited distance (less than 2000
foot radius); higher capacity than PBX.
Can share expensive hardware & software
*
9.22
LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN)
• SERVER: stores programs, data; determines
access to network
• GATEWAY: connection to other networks
• NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM (NOS):
manages file server; routes communications
on network
• PEER - TO - PEER: in some small networks all
computers have equal power
*
9.23
WIDE - AREA NETWORK (WAN)
NETWORK SPANS LARGE
GEOGRAPHIC DISTANCES
CAN INCLUDE CABLE, SATELLITE,
MICROWAVE
• SWITCHED LINES: Route Determined
by Current Traffic
• DEDICATED LINES: Constantly
Available for High-Volume Traffic

PROTOCOL / INTERNET
PROTOCOL (TCP / IP)
REFERENCE MODEL DEVELOPED BY
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE IN 1972
1. APPLICATION: Provides Screen
Presentations
2. TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL
(TCP): Breaks Data into Datagrams
3. INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP): Breaks,
Sends Datagrams as Smaller IP Packets;
Can Repeat Transmission to Increase
Reliability
