Questions and Answers

Which method is used in CSMA/CD to detect collisions on the network?

  • Contention
  • Collision-detection (correct)
  • Segmentation
  • Attenuation

What is the distance limitation for the collision detection mechanism in CSMA/CD?

  • 3 miles
  • 5000 meters
  • 1.5 miles
  • 2500 meters (correct)

Why is CSMA/CD considered a contention method?

  • Because it has a collision avoidance mechanism
  • Because it is a fast implementation
  • Because it allows computers to contend for data transmission (correct)
  • Because it has a distance limitation

What is the distance limitation for effective collision detection in CSMA/CD?

<p>The collision detection mechanism is not effective beyond 2500 meters (1.5 miles).</p> Signup and view all the answers

How does attenuation affect the collision detection mechanism in CSMA/CD?

<p>Attenuation weakens the transmitted signal, making the collision detection mechanism ineffective beyond a certain distance.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the consequence of simultaneous data transmission by multiple computers in CSMA/CD?

<p>Simultaneous data transmission by multiple computers leads to data collision and corruption.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How does the number of computers on the network affect network traffic in CSMA/CD?

<p>More computers on the network result in increased network traffic and higher chances of data collisions.</p> Signup and view all the answers
