# Interfaces and Cables
|
|
|
|
Front of a switch example phrase above the interfaces
|
|
10/100/1000 Base-T Ports ( 1 -24) - Ports are Auto MDIX
|
|
|
|
## [[RJ-45]]
|
|
|
|
Registerred Jack
|

|
|
## Etrhernet
|
|
|
|
Etrhernet is a collection of network protocols/standards.
|
|
|
|
## Network Protocols
|
|
Why do we need network protocols
|
|
For Industry standard that everybody follows
|
|
|
|
## [[Bits]] and [[Bytes]]
|
|
|
|
it a value represented by 0 and 1
|
|
a bytes is a series of 8 bits
|
|
|
|
Speed is measured in bits per second (kbps, Mbps, Gbps, etc) not bytes per seconds.
|
|
|
|
However for [[Hard drives]] we count the bytes
|
|
|
|
1 kilobit (kb) - 1,000 bits
|
|
1 megabit (Mb) - 1,000,000 bits
|
|
1 gigabit (Gb) - 1,000,000,000 bits
|
|
1 terabit (Tb) - 1,000,000 bits
|
|
|
|
## Etrhernet standards
|
|
|
|
- Defined in the IEEE 802.3 standard in 1983
|
|
- IEEE = Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
|
|
|
|
### Copper Ethernet standard

#### BASE T
|
|
|
|
Base = refers to baseband signaling
|
|
T = twitsted pair
|
|
|
|
### UTP Cables
|
|
|
|
Unshielded Twisted Pair
|
|
Twisted mean that there sensitive against [[EMI]] Electronic Magnetic Interference
|
|
they got 8 pins
|
|
|
|
10Base-T and 100Base-T = 2 pairs (4 wires)
|
|
|
|
1000Base-T and 10GBase-T = 4pairs (8 wires)
|
|
|
|
#### UTP Cables (10Base-T, 100 Base-T)
|

|
|
Full-Duplex transmission
|
|
Both devices can send and received data at the same. no colission while occur
|
|
|
|
##### Straight-through cable

|
##### Auto MDI-X
|
|
|
|
allows devices to automatically detect and adjust the the pins for transmiting data prevent colissions
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### UTP Cables (10Base-T, 100 Base-T)
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Straight-through cable
|
|
|
|
Each pair is bidirectional
|
|
|
|
the pair are
|
|
|
|
1 and 2
|
|
3 and 6
|
|
4 and 5

## Fiber-Optic Connection
|
|
|
|
[[SFP]] Transceiver Small-Factor Pluggable for Fiber Optics cable
|
|
|
|
Send light over glass fiber
|
|
|
|
TX - RX
|
|
RX - TX
|
|
|
|
there are 4 layers for this cable
|
|
|
|
1 : the fiberglass core itself
|
|
2 : cladding that reflects light
|
|
3 : a protective buffer
|
|
4 : the outer jacket of the cable
|
|
|
|
single-mode and multimode fiber
|
|
|
|
### Multimode fiber
|
|
|
|
- Core diameter is wider than single mode fiber.
|
|
- Allow mutiple angles (modes) of light waves to enter the fiberglass core
|
|
- Allows longer cables tha [[UTP]] but shorter cables than single-mode fiber.
|
|
- cheaper than single-mode fiber (due to cheaper LED-based SFP transmitters)
|
|
|
|
### Single-Mode Fiber
|
|
|
|
- Core diameter is narrower than multimode fiber
|
|
- Light enters at a single angle (mode) from alaser-based transmitter
|
|
- Allows longer cables than both UTP and multimode fiber
|
|
- More expensive than multimode fiber (due to more expnesive laser based transmitters)
|
|
|
|

## UTP vs Fiber-Optic Cabling
|
|
|
|
- UTP
|
|
- Lower cost than fiber optic.
|
|
- Shorter Maximum distance than fiber0-optic (100m).
|
|
- Can be vulnerable to EMI
|
|
- RJ45 ports used with UTP are cheaper than SFP ports.
|
|
- Emit (leak) a faint signal outside of the cable, which can be copied (= security risk)
|
|
|
|
- Fiber-Optic
|
|
- Higher cost than UTP.
|
|
- Longer maximum distance than UTP.
|
|
- No vulnerability to EMI.
|
|
- SFP ports are more expnsive than RJ45 ports (singl-mode is more expensive than multimode).
|
|
- Does not emit any signal outside of the cable (=no security risk)
