7. How do local area networks (LANs) differ from metropolitan area network (MAN)? A local area network (LAN) is a group of microcomputers located in the same general area. It covers a clearly defined small area‚ such as an office‚ home network ‚one floor or work area‚ a single building‚ or a group of buildings. While a metropolitan area network (MAN) connects LANs and BNs located in different areas to each other and to WANs. MANs typically span between three and 30 miles. For example a large university

Wireless communication is the transfer of information between two or more points that are not connected by an electrical conductor. The most common wireless technologies use radio. With radio waves distances can be short‚ such as a few meters for television or as far as thousands or even millions of kilometers for deep-space radio communications. It encompasses various types of fixed‚ mobile‚ and portable applications‚ including two-way radios‚ cellular telephones‚ personal digital assistants

Bluetooth will enable users to connect to a wide range of computing and telecommunications devices without the need for proprietary cables that often fall short in terms of ease-of-use. A global specification for wireless connectivity: Bluetooth‚ named for Denmark’s first Christian king and not a dire dental condition‚ is the name of a technology specification for small form factor‚ low-cost‚ short-range radio links between PCs‚handhelds‚ mobile phones‚ and other

History of LANs Data Communications began in the 1960s with an emphasis on communication over long distances — at least between different cities and often over much greater distances — but at relatively slow data transfer rates. At that time‚ that was what was needed. Most computing was done in batch mode‚ and companies needed an efficient way to transmit data processing files between computer sites. In the 1970s‚ interactive terminals began to proliferate‚ but most data communications took place

Teknik Instalasi Fisik LAN untuk WARNET Onno W. Purbo Dalam tulisan ini saya mencoba memberikan gambaran tentang beberapa teknik praktis untuk membangun Local Area Network (LAN) khususnya untuk kepentingan Warung Internet (WARNET). Topologi LAN Yang dimaksud dengan topologi dari sebuah LAN adalah bentuk / konfigurasi yang digunakan untuk menyambungkan antar komputer untuk membentuk sebuah LAN. Secara historis & teoritis‚ pada dasarnya ada bebeberapa tipe topologi yang mendasar‚ yaitu:

The improper securing of a quick release snap‚ an adjustable d ring attaching strap‚ or either of the female portions of the leg strap release assembly can and may very well result in the improper function of the single point release harness when activated or before on

On maintaining accountability of sensitive items In this RBI I will explain why accountability of your sensitive items is important. To lose a sensitive item can be detrimental to the readiness of your unit in times of war or training. The consequences of losing sensitive items vary from item to item according to its value and importance. In times of war losing a sensitive item such as a loaded SINCGARS radio or an ANCD you have just given your enemy the ability to intercept all secure radio
