S.I.TECH LAN/WAN With a personal computer on each desk, so-called distributed data processing emerged with a need to connect all PC’s in a given area and to share data files together. This is how the local area network (LAN) was born. Today LAN’s can have hundreds or even thousands of users (nodes) connected together. In large networks, segments are created so that problems can be easily isolated and eliminated. Over the years there have been many networking schemes, each with advantages and disadvantages. Today, Ethernet is the most prominent LAN in offices. While LAN’s are adequate for small...

S.I.TECH LOCAL AREA NETWORKS As the term implies, computers located in a given area such as an office or factory can be networked (connected together) in a particular scheme. Today’s Local Area Networks are comprised of many special inter connecting schemes, each with unique benefits and disadvantages. Basic configurations are: 1. Bus Network: all users are attached to a common BUS. LAN INTERFACE Ring Network Tree Network: Combining these concepts into various fashions, today’s complex LAN’s are set up. S.I.

S.I.TECH COAXIAL CABLES: IBM SNA, ARCNET, and ETHERNET are coaxial cable based networks. Both IBM SNA and ARCNET use 93 ohm, low capacitance cable. Ethernet Trunk Cable is typically 50 ohm thick coax (yellow cable) and Ethernet Distribution Cable is thin coax, RG-58/U. As we all know, attenuation (loss) in coaxial cable goes up with frequency and distance. The higher the data rate and the longer the distance, the higher the loss. This limits the distance that cable can be used effectively without amplification (Boosters, Repeaters). Cable television, which typically uses 75 ohm coaxial cable,...
