Study Notes
Data Communications
- Telecommunication refers to communication at a distance.
- Data refers to information presented in a form agreed upon by the parties creating and using it.
- Data communications involve the exchange of data between two devices via a transmission medium (wire, cable, or wireless).
- Key aspects of data communications:
- Delivery: Ensuring data reaches the correct destination
- Accuracy: Ensuring accurate data transmission
- Timeliness: Real-time transmission
- Jitter: Minimizing uneven delay
Components of Data Communication
- There are five components of data communication (not specified in the text)
Data Representation
- Data can be represented in various forms:
- Text
- Numbers
- Images
- Audio
- Video
Data Flow
- There are three types of data flow:
- Simplex: One-way communication
- Half-duplex: Communication in both directions, but not simultaneously
- Full-duplex: Communication in both directions simultaneously
Networks
- A network is a set of devices (nodes) connected by communication links.
- A node can be a computer, printer, or any other device capable of sending and/or receiving data.
Computer Networks
- A computer network is a system that connects devices to facilitate data exchange.
