Transmission Media
• Coaxial Cable• Twisted Pair Copper Cable• Fiber-optic Cable• Wireless
![Page 3: Media and Medium](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070419/56815bde550346895dc9cd26/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Coaxial Cable
• Two types– ThinNet (10Base2)
• 10 Mbps, 30 nodes per segment, max 180 meters• LAN
– ThickNet (10Base5)• 10 Mbps, 100 nodes per segment, max 500 meters• Backbone
• Insecure– Coax is easy to splice

Twisted Pair Copper Cable
• Copper wire• Twist reduces EMI• Classified by transmission rates
– Cat3, Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6

Fiber-Optic Cable
• Glass core with plastic shielding• Small, light, fragile, and expensive• Very fast transmission rate• Can transmit data very far• Immune to interference• Hard to splice

Security Concerns
• Easy to insert a node or splice into network
• Most attacks involve eavesdropping or sniffing
• Physical security• War driving

Magnetic Storage – Hard Drives
• Around $1/GB• Three interfaces
– SCSI• Introduced in early
1980’s• Very fast, reliable,
expensive• Up to 320MB/s• Up to 16 devices
– IDE / ATA• Cheap, common, easy
to setup• Somewhat unreliable
– Serial ATA• Introduced in 2002• 150MB/s• Hot-plugging capability• Serial Attached SCSI
