Cabling LANs - LAN Physical Layer

• Various symbols are used to represent media types:


• Token Ring is represented by a circle.
• FDDI is represented by two concentric circles.
• Ethernet symbol is represented by a straight line.
• Serial connections are represented by a lightning bolt.
• The function of media is to carry a flow of information through
a LAN. Wireless LANs use the atmosphere, or space, as the
medium. Other networking media confine network signals to a
wire, cable, or fiber.
• Networking media are considered Layer 1, or physical layer,
components of LANs.
• Each type of media has advantages and disadvantages. These
are based on the following factors:
• Cable length
• Cost
• Ease of installation
• Susceptibility to interference

UTP Implementation

• If the two RJ-45 connectors of a cable are held side by side in the same orientation, the colored wires
will be seen in each. If the order of the colored wires is the same at each end, then the cable is a
straight-through.
• In a crossover cable, the RJ-45 connectors on both ends show that some of the wires are connected to
different pins on each side of the cable. The Figure above shows that pins 1 and 2 on one connector
connect to pins 3 and 6 on the other.

Network Computers

• Networked computers roles or functions in relation to each other:


• Client:
• Requestor
• access the resources shared across the network
• issues a request for a service
• Server:
• Responder
• provides the resources across the network
• receives and responds to that request
• Peer:
• computers function as equal partners
• can be a server or a client from time to time

Cabling WANs
• The physical layer implementations vary based on the distance of the equipment from
each service, the speed, and the type of service.
• Serial connections are used to support WAN services such as dedicated leased lines
that run PPP or Frame Relay. The speed of these connections ranges from 2400 bps to
T1 service at 1.544 Mbps and E1 service at 2.048 Mbps.

When connecting directly to a


service provider, or to a device
such as a CSU/DSU that will
perform signal clocking, the
router is a DTE and needs a
ISP DTE serial cable.
When performing a back-to-back
router scenario in a test
environment, one of the routers

Routers and DSL Connections

• The Cisco 827 ADSL router has one asymmetric


digital subscriber line (ADSL) interface.
• To connect an ADSL line to the ADSL port on a
router, do the following:
• Connect the phone cable to the ADSL port on the router.
• Connect the other end of the phone cable to the phone
jack.
• To connect a router for DSL service, use a phone
cable with RJ-11 connectors. DSL works over
standard telephone lines using pins 3 and 4 on a
standard RJ-11 connector. Cisco 827-4V Router

Routers and cable connections

• The Cisco uBR905 cable access router


provides high-speed network access
on the cable television system to
residential and small office, home
office (SOHO) subscribers.

Setting up console connections

• To initially configure the Cisco


device, a management
connection must be directly
connected to the device. For
Cisco equipment this
management attachment is
called a console port. The
console port allows monitoring
and configuration of a Cisco
hub, switch, or router.
