Network Interface Card (NIC)

Commonly referred to as ETHERNET CARD and LAN ADAPTER

Provides the physical connection from a computer or network component to a wired or wireless layer 2 LAN media.


NIC Components

Interrupt Request Line (IRQ) Input/Output (I/O) address in memory A driver(software that interfaces with the NIC) MAC address

CABLING TYPES


Cabling Types

LANs typically use either copper or fiber-optic cabling.

COPPER CABLING can include on strand of copper across

which an electrical voltage is transmitted or many strands of copper.

FIBER OPTIC CABLING uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and

lasers to transmit data.

COPPER CABLING


COPPER CABLING

The Ethernet standards define three types of copper cabling:

THICKNET

THINNET

UNSHIELDED TWISTED PAIR (UTP)


THICKNET

also known as 10BASE5 or IEEE 802.3-1985 an Ethernet standard that requires a specialized coaxial cable to transmit Ethernet frames at a rate of 10Mbps. It derives its nickname, which is a portmanteau of "Thick Ethernet," from the thick coaxial cable it uses, which is 0.375 inches in diameter


THINNET

also known as 10BASE2, IEEE 802.3, or "CheaperNet," an early Ethernet standard that makes use of industry-standard RG-58 coaxial communications cables connected to BNC T-connectors. The standard has been nicknamed as such due to the thin and relatively inexpensive coaxial cables or "thinwire" used, which are 5 millimeters (0.2 inches) in diameter; "ThinNet" is a portmanteau of "Thin Ethernet."


UNSHIELDED TWISTED PAIR

UnshieldedTwisted (why?) pairs of insulated conductorsCovered by insulating sheath



UTP cable is a 100 ohm copper cable that consists of 2 to 1800 unshielded twisted pairs surrounded by an outer jacket.



They have no metallic shield. This makes the cable small in diameter but unprotected against electrical interference. The twist helps to improve its immunity to electrical noise and EMI.


DISADVANTAGES OF COPPER CABLING

It is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI)Distances of the cable are limited to a short haul


UTP CATEGORIES

Category 1 Voice only (Telephone)

Category 2 Data to 4 Mbps (Localtalk)

Category 3 Data to 10Mbps (Ethernet)

Category 4 Data to 20Mbps (Token ring)

Category 5Category 5e

Data to 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet)Data to 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet)

Category 6 Data to 2500Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet)


RJ-45 CONNECTOR

The two endpoints of a UTP cable have an RJ-45 connector.Similar to a telephone connector (RJ-11), except that the RJ-45 is about 50% larger in size.

FIBER OPTIC CABLING


Fiber-Optic

Fiber optics (optical fibers) are long, thin strands of very pure glass about the diameter of a human hair. They are arranged in bundles called optical cables and used to transmit light signals over long distances


Fiber-Optic PartsCore - Thin glass center of the fiber where the light travelsCladding - Outer optical material surrounding the core that reflects the light back into the coreBuffer coating - Plastic coating that protects the fiber from damage and moistureHundreds or thousands of these optical fibers are arranged in bundles in optical cables. The bundles are protected by the cable's outer covering, called a jacket


Fiber-Optic Cabling

Used to provide very high speeds and to span connections across very large distances.Advantage: Great with 100Gbps and distances

greater than 10kilometers

Disadvantage: Expensive to implement, difficult to

troubleshoot and difficult to install


Two Types of Fiber

Multimode (MMF)

Singlemode (SMF)


Multimode Fiber

Transmits 850 to 1300 nanometer wavelengths of lightFiber thickness is 62.5/125 micronsThe core and cladding diameter is in the 50 to 100 micronLight is transmitted using LED


Singlemode Fiber

Transmits 1300 to 1550 nm light and uses a laser as the light source.

Cable Type Comparisons

Cable Distance Data Rates Comparison

UTP 100 meters 10 Mbps – 1 Gbps Easy to install but is susceptible to interference

Coaxial 500 meters 10 – 100 Mpbs Easy to install but its difficult to troubleshoot

Fiber 10 kilometers 10 Mbps – 100 Gpbs Difficult and expensive to install, difficult to troubleshoot, but can span very long distances and is not susceptible to interference.
