Data Communication
Message Information to be
communicated=>text, numbers, pictures,
sound or video.
Sender device that sends the messagecomputer, telephone, video camera and so
on.
Receiver Device that receives the message
same as sender

Network Topology
Mesh
Easy to reroute
Disadvantages
Amount of cable increase
Number of input output
port increase
Wiring can be greater
than space
expensive

Network Topology
Star
Each point has a dedicated point to point only to a
central controller, called hub
It does not allow direct traffic between devices
Advantage
Less cabling-less expensive than mesh topology
Easy to install and reconfigure
To easy fault identification and fault isolation
Disadvantage
More cabling required compared some other
topologies

Network Topology
Bus
One long cable act as backbone to link all devices in
the network
Node are connected to the bus by drop lines and tap.
Advantages
Easy to install
Use less cable with one long backbone
Disadvantages
Difficult to reconfigure
Any tab to the backbone will degrade the quality of
the network
Fault of the backbone will stop all transmission

Network Topology
Ring
Has a dedicate point to point only with two
devices on either side.
Signal pass in along ring in one direction from
device to device until reach destination
Each device act as repeater.
Advantage
Easy to install and reconfigure
Disadvantage
Unidirectional traffic can be disadvantage
A break in a ring can disable entire network

Syntax
The structure or format of data, eg the first eight bits
to be the address of sender, the second is the address
of the receiver and the remains are the message
Semantics
The meaning of each sections of bits, means how is a
particular pattern to be interpreted eg does an
address identify the route to be taken
Timing
Refers to two characteristics, when data should be
sent and how fast they can be sent
