DATA TRANSMISSION AND NETWORKING MEDIA

Abstract

This e-book is based on the polytechnic syllabus for Electrical and Electronic Engineering, especially in the field of communication and computers. This e-book intends to provide students with information and abilities in data transmission and networking media. Data transmission and networking media are fundamental components of modern communication systems, enabling the transfer of data between devices across various distances and environments. Data transmission refers to the process of sending and receiving data between devices over a communication medium. This can involve either digital or analog signals and is essential for various applications. Networking media refers to the physical pathways that connect devices in a network, facilitating data transmission. These media can be categorized into wired and wireless types. There are several topics included exercises to test students’ understanding. Some of the topics in this e-book have been accompanied by YouTube links and QR codes to help students better understand the topics. Understanding data transmission and networking media is crucial for developing efficient communication systems. As technology evolves, the choice of transmission media will continue to impact speed, reliability, and overall performance in data exchange across networks.
