How Networking Can be Defined

Mujahed Ali asked:


Networking concept is widely used in various fields and technologies. Network is an arrangement of intersection horizontal and vertical lines like a structure of a net. A group of points are integrated for various reasons. This concept has been implemented in all technologies. The technologies such as computer systems, telecommunication, mobile cell, information, television, radio, internet, intranet, extranet are advanced because they adopted integration.

The computer systems are most powerful machines in the present world that can be networked in different environment in different situations. Networking in the field of computing is the practice of linking computers together to support digital communication among them. Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN), Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN), Wireless LAN, Intranet, Internet, and extranet. The client-to-client and server-to-client technology are the basic concept of advanced computer network. As a result, a chain of interconnected computers machines or operations are taken place. Computer networking companies manufacturing network devices for establishing robust networking. The research and development on the technologies create demand of network hardware and devices. Wireless networking and virtual networking is the latest network technologies are going to provide better services to the world.

Intranet runs under one server and many client computers for limited people with security control. For an example, employees of a company can access a network for the internal communications. Extranet is such kind of networking environment that can be shared between more than one group for sharing and communications. The extranet is also security controlled for certain groups. Internet is a world wide network that connects millions of computers around the world. The internet also runs under secure socket level (SSL). The finance, banking, shopping companies run in internet under security level for reliance.

Besides wireless, virtual networking is an advanced networking technology helps people. Virtual Private Network (VPN) is private network in excess public infrastructure. Generally, VPN set up in homes and workplaces of employees for safely log into company networks. VPN is one of the convenient ways to stay connected to the corporate intranet for telecommuters. This network can be found in workplaces, homes and mobile places. Telecommuters travel and find a VPN a more convenient way to stay connected to the corporate intranet. A VPN supplies network connectivity over a possibly long physical distance. In this respect, a VPN is a form of WAN. This VPN has interesting aspects of network protocol design, network service outsourcing, Internet security, and technology standards.

Mobile network provides mobile communications under Wire Less Program (WAP) technology. Certain networks control base transmission stations and links other networks for wide mobile services. Television or radio like wireless network is a group of broadcasting stations connected for a simultaneous broadcast of a program.

How difficult is to run cat5 cabling in several rooms in pre-existing home?

Slacker asked:


Looking for advice on how to setup / install cat5 wall jacks in my pre-existing home for a wired home network. My plan is to have my router hooked into a switch w/ 6 ports going to a wall jack. That wall jack will have cat5 cabling going to different rooms in the house through the attic.

Has anyone done this before? How do I run cable from the ceiling through the wall down to the wall plate? Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Do’s and Don’ts of Data Network Cabling

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009
Mark Allen asked:


When commencing with operations to install data network cabling, there are a number of do’s and don’ts. First, it is important to note that if you are installing the data network cabling in an unfinished home, or office, regardless of the size of the job, it will be an easier task than in an already completed building.

Regardless of how large or small your data cable network is going to be, it is vital to have a home-run location. This is the location where all of your cables will terminate. This unit could be a structured media center that can be flush mounted prior to the completion of the building and should be large enough to accommodate both your present and any future expansion plans for your data network.

Do

Cross Power and Cat5 cables at a 90º angle. It is not always possible to keep both data network cabling and data network cables completely separate, and is virtually impossible to keep them from crossing at certain points in the construction process. If they must cross, they should be kept at a ninety degree angle to avoid any serious interference.

Don’t

Ever mix the color scheme of your data network cabling, keep all of you data cabling dependent upon what it is that you wish to install data cabling for, separate colors; for example, use white cabling for telephone and voice traffic line one, black for line two, yellow for line three, blue for data, etc.

Do

Label your cabling. As each piece of data network cabling is strung, it should be labeled as to which office or room it is destined for, and how it should be terminated, whether it be for Ethernet or a jack for the telephone. Using an indelible ink pen is perfect for this job.

Don’t

Run Cat5 cables right alongside power cables as this most typically causes interference on the data network cabling.

Do

Run Ethernet cabling everywhere, particularly if you have access to open walls during the construction phase of the office or home. If you are going to the trouble of installing data network cabling, it is good to have it in as many places as possible for easy access. Even if you only have one Ethernet port in a room, a router can be fitted to allow for more at a later stage.

Don’t

Bundle the data networking cable too tightly, it is fine for you to run telephone, data and coaxial video cable together but the bundles of cables should definitely not be tied into tight bundles. Cable turns should be soft as a kinked cable could have a negative impact on the network throughout.

Do

Keep your cables segregated and plan for any future growth, ensure that there is room to run more data network cabling in the future, particularly if the cabling is being strung during the construction phase of the building.

Do

Use mud rings, they are far more practical for telephone Ethernet and coaxial cables and as they are low voltage, the cables do not need to be terminated.

Cat5 copper cable, health & safety issues. Does anyone know whether there are any specific issues that I have?

Julie r asked:


to be aware of if I wish to run a cat5 externally (temporarily). Some people are telling me this is now illegall, some are saying there are specific health & safety issues, but I do not know what they are? Can I insist the cable has to be protected by rubber sleeving?

In ethernet what is CAT5 cable and RJ45?

Thursday, February 5th, 2009
Mk asked:


I heard people talk about ‘CAT5′ and ‘RJ45′. Do these only apply to an ethernet LAN?
————
What do each other these two terms mean? How are they related to twisted pair copper cable and fiber optic cables?
—————
The usual home analog telephone also has a connector similar to RJ45. What is it called? And how is it different from a LAN connector?
—————-
What are some other similar terms that are often used?
