- is used to extend the coverage
area of your Wi-Fi network.

Network Repeater

- The specific characteristic of
this is that whatever it
receives it transmits to the
other LAN segment. This
does not understand the
frame format and also
physical addresses. In other
words, it is a transparent
device. Therefore, multiple
LANs connected by
repeaters may be
considered as a single LAN.

Telephone Repeater

- is used to amplify
signals to support and
carry long distance calls.

Radio Repeater

- this is used to extend the
coverage of a radio signal.

Submarine Repeater

- Repeaters are used for optical signal amplification. Repeaters are placed every 60km to 70km. Power to the repeater is feeded from Power feeding equipment, which is located in Submarine Cable Station. In traditional subsea cable, every fiber pair will have their own repeaters.]]> 2021-04-12 01:53:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405411108 Modem is a networking device that allows devices to send and receive data over the internet by converting analog signal into a digital signal and vice versa. ejmangalas https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405411661 2021-04-12 01:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405411661 Advantages mgprenda https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405418342 - It amplifies the signal.

- It does not affect the performance of the network
when it’s performing its task on the signal. 

- Repeaters can be used in different mediums for
reception and transmission.

- It does not increase or decrease the network traffic.]]> 2021-04-12 01:56:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405418342 How does modem work ejmangalas https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405419154 Computers can only

provide cable TV and high-speed
internet access.
 
2. DSL MODEM

- is a modem used to transfer
digital signals over standard
telephone lines.

3. USB MODEM

architectures using repeater. For this router or gateway is
needed.

- The number of repeaters to be used are limited between
two ends. More repeaters create noise on the wire which
results into packet collisions or problems in the packet
detection.

- Repeaters do not perform filtering of the data as well.]]> 2021-04-12 01:58:14 UTC https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405421703 Advantages ejmangalas https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405425315 • High transmission speed

are typically box-shaped
devices that connect directly
to computers via "hard-lined"
or wired connections.

- Wireless Router
- is a router that distributes
internet connection through
one or more antenna
(wireless access points).

- Brouter

- Modem Router
- it is a router with
built-in usb port and
Ethernet ports.
- It is the most common kind of router ]]> 2021-04-12 02:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405433062 Types of Hub ejmangalas https://padlet.com/mgprenda/6dda05l4ajsamqsl/wish/1405435376 1. Network hub
