    DATA
    COMMUNICATION
    Data Communication
    This is the transmission and exchange of digital
    information between two or more devices or
    systems.
    Components of Data Communication
    • Sender: The device or system that
    initiates the communication and
    encodes the data for transmission.

    • Receiver: The device or system that


    receives the transmitted data.

    • Message: The message is the


    actual data or information being
    transmitted.
    Components of Data Communication

    • Channel: The physical or


    virtual medium through
    which the data is transmitted.

    • Feedback: The response from


    the receiver to the sender.
    Data Transmission Mode
    • Data Transmission mode defines the direction in
    which data flows between two communication
    devices.

    • There are three modes for transmission:


    Simplex, Half Duplex and Full-Duplex.
    Data Transmission Mode
    • Simplex: If transmission is simplex, communication
    can take place in only one direction. For eg radio and
    television.
    .
    • Half-Duplex: This can transmit in both directions, but
    only in one direction at a time. for eg a walkie talkie.

    • Full- Duplex: This allows information to flow at the


    same time in both directions. Example telephones.

    Twisted pair cables
    Twisted pair cables have been used
    for telephone networks for over
    century, although they are gradually
    being replaced by fibre optic cables.

    Twisted pair cables are used for


    networks where there is no great need
    for speed. It is a cheap convenient
    method of connecting computers and
    peripherals in a network.
    Coaxial Cables

    Coaxial cable: used in medium-


    sized networks to transmit voice,
    video and data at moderate Performance Expectations

    speeds. This is more expensive


    Of Employees & Superiors

    than twisted pair because the


    transmission capabilities are
    higher.

    It is used for cable television and


    broadband Internet connections.
    Fibre-optic cables
    Fibre-optic cables contain a
    bundle of glass fibres that each
    transmit light. This is a very fast
    and reliable form of data
    transmission. Fibre-optic cables
    are now widley used in telephones
    systems. These are relatively
    expensive.

    WIRELESS
    TRANSMISSION MEDIA
    Microwaves
    Microwaves are radio waves that
    provide a high-speed signal
    transmission. A microwave station
    is an earth-based reflective dish
    that contains the antenna,
    transceivers and other equipment
    necessary for microwave
    communications.
    Satellite
    Communications satellite is a
    space station that receives
    microwave signals from an
    earth-based station, amplifies
    (strengthens) the signals, and
    broadcasts the signals back
    over a wide area to any
    number of earth-based
    stations.
    Infrared
    Infrared is a wireless transmission
    medium that sends signals using
    infrared light waves. Devices,
    such as a mouse, printers, and
    smartphones often have IrDa
    ports that enables the transfer of
    data from one device to another
    using infrared light waves.
    WIRELESS NETWORK
    TECHNOLOGIES
    WI-FI (Wireless Fidelity)
    This is a wireless radio
    technology that can be used to
    send data between devices
    and computers. Small LANs
    can be built using only WIFI,
    and the signal is good enough
    to be used with shared internet
    access. Some cell phones can
    use WI-FI technology to access
    the internet.
    Hotspot
    This is a public area or space where
    you can access WI-FI. These may be
    provided by a commercial
    organization like a hotel or
    restaurant. Some charge a fee for
    WI-FI access, while others offer a
    free service to anyone who wants to
    use it.
    Bluetooth
    This is a radio technology
    that is similar to WI-FI but
    only works over short
    distances, and is slower. It is
    mainly used to send data
    between two devices such
    as a cell phone and headset,
    or between a digital camera
    and a laptop.
