Network designer require to consider type of media transmission depending on network needs. Different media have different specifications for throughput, cost, noise immunity, size, and scalability.
Throughput
Throughput is one of the main factors for choosing transmission method. While in theory signal can travel with speed of light, in practice it is limited by media physical characteristics and multiplexing techniques. Since the ...
Term “latency” is referring to a delay between transmission and receipt of the signal. In the electric cable there is time difference happening between time when user press the button and moment when server receives signal. Many physical factors are affecting latency, such as length of the wire/cable and amount of nodes between server and signal sender. Different devices for ...
