Networks vary in size; they can be as small as two computers connected to

each other by a cable, or they can span the entire globe—the Internet is
actually the world’s largest network.
The collections of interconnected computer networks around the world make
up the Internet. People connected to the network can share resources and
information. Computer programs can be used and accessed simultaneously.

Components of Computer Network

1. Server is a powerful computer that provides services to the other computers on the
network.
2. Client is a computer that uses the services that a server provides.
3. Media is a physical connection between the devices on a network
4. Network Adapter is a network adapter is a component of a computer's internal
hardware that is used for communicating over a network with another computer. It
enables a computer to connect with another computer, server, or any networking
device over LAN connection. A network adapter can be used over a wired or wireless
network.
5. Resources are anything available to a client on the network is considered a
resource. Printers, data, fax devices, and other network devices and information are
resources.
6. User refers to any person that uses a client to access resources on the network.

9
 7. Protocols are written rules used for communications. They are the languages that
computers use to talk to each other on a network.

Types of Network

A. Computer Network According to Range

1. Local Area Network ( LAN) - A network that
connects computers in the same geographic
area or within a local area, such as, building,
room, a home, or a school's computer
laboratory. Computers in this kind of network
can be interconnected through cables or
wireless links.

2. Metropolitan Area Network

(MAN) - MAN is a larger
network than LAN. It
usually covers several
offices, buildings, or
schools, each with their
LAN but connected in the
same locality or place.

3. Wide Area Network (WAN)

- a network that connects
computers across a large
geographic area using
telephone lines or
satellites. The Internet is a
huge Wide Area Network.

4. Storage Area Network

(SAN)
- A high-speed sub-network of shared storage devices. A storage device is a
the machine that contains nothing but a disk or disks for storing data.

10
 5. Virtual Private Network (VPN)
- Technology included in Windows Server 2003 helps enable cost-effective,
secure remote access to private networks. VPN allows administrators to take
advantage of the Internet to help provide the functionality and security of
private WAN connections at a lower cost.

B. Computer Network According to Functional Relationship

1. Peer-to-Peer Network - In a peer-to-peer network, everyone stores their files on

their computer, and anyone on the network can access files stored on any other
computer.

2. Client/Server Network: In a client/server network, everyone stores their files on a

central computer called a server. Everyone on the network can access the files
stored on the server.

 Servers These are located in secured areas, such as locked closets and data
centers because they hold the organization's most valuable data and do not have
been accessed by operators continuously. − The server runs a special network
operating system such as Windows NT Server, Windows 2000, or Novell
Netware.
 Clients The rest of the computers on the network functions as a client. A
client standard PC that is running an operating system such as DOS or
Windows.

11
C. Computer Network According to Topology
Topology refers to the layout or structure of the network about the flow of data.

1. Star Topology - The most

commonly applied topology.
Uses a central device
(hub) with cables extending
in all directions.

2. Linear Bus Topology - Linear bus topology uses one long cable, referred to as a
backbone, to which computers and other devices are attached. A terminator is
placed at each end of the backbone to keep the signals from bouncing back and
being received again by the nodes in the network.

3. Ring Topology- It is
consists of several
computers joined together
to form a circle. Data
moves from one computer
to the next in one direction
only. Any data or messages
will pass through adjacent
nodes until it reaches the
target node.

12
 4. Hybrid - Hybrid topology is a combination of different types of topology used in a
a network system to adapt to the different designs of floors or rooms in a
building.

Network Advantages

 Central Storage of Data. Files can be stored on a central node (the file server) that
can be shared and made available to every user in an organization.
 Anyone can connect to a computer network. There is a negligible range of abilities
required to connect to a modern computer network. The effortlessness of joining
makes it workable for even youthful kids to start exploiting the data.
 Faster Problem-solving. Since an extensive procedure is disintegrated into a few
littler procedures and each is taken care of by all the associated gadgets, an explicit
issue can be settled in lesser time.
 Reliability. Reliability implies backing up of information. Due to some reason
equipment crash, and so on, the information gets undermined or inaccessible on one
PC, another duplicate of similar information is accessible on another workstation for
future use, which prompts smooth working and further handling without interruption.
 It is highly flexible. This innovation is known to be truly adaptable, as it offers clients
the chance to investigate everything about fundamental things, for example,
programming without influencing their usefulness.
 Security through Authorization. Security and protection of information are additionally
settled through the system. As just the system clients are approved to get to specific
records or applications, no other individual can crack the protection or security of
information.

13
  It boosts storage capacity. Since you will share data, records, and assets with other
individuals, you need to guarantee all information and substance are legitimately put
away in the framework. With this systems administration innovation, you can do the
majority of this with no issue, while having all the space you require for capacity.

Network Disadvantages

 It lacks stability. If a PC system’s principle server separates, the whole framework

would end up futile. Also, if it has a bridging device or a central linking server that
fails, the entire network would come to a standstill. To manage these issues, gigantic
systems ought to have a ground-breaking PC to fill in as a document server to
influence setting up and keeping up the system less demanding.
 It lacks independence. PC organizing includes a procedure that is worked utilizing
PCs, so individuals will depend on a greater amount of PC work, rather than applying
an exertion for their jobs that needs to be done. Besides this, they will be subject to
the primary document server, which implies that, if it separates, the framework would
end up futile, making clients inactive.
 Virus and Malware. On the off chance that even one PC on a system gets
contaminated with an infection, alternate frameworks can get tainted as well.
Infections can spread on a system effectively, given the availability of different
gadgets.
 Cost of the network. The expense of executing the system including cabling and
equipment can be expensive.

Network Tools, Equipment, Materials & Testing Devices

Network tools
Crimping tool
- A crimping tool is a tool designed to crimp or connect
a connector to the end of a cable. For example,
network cables and phone cables are created using a
crimping tool to connect the RJ-45 and RJ-11
connectors to the end of the cable.
Wire stripper
- A tool designed to remove the protective covering off
of a cable to expose the inner wires. Because
different wires come in different shapes, there are
dozens of different wire strippers available. It strips a
cable by placing the cable in-between the blade and
one of the ridges and then spun around the cable
until the jacket can be pulled off

14
Network Equipment

Patch panel
- A patch panel, patch bay, patch field, or jack field is
a device or unit featuring some jacks, usually of the
same or similar type, for the use of connecting and
routing circuits for monitoring, interconnecting, and
testing circuits in a convenient, flexible manner.
Network hub
- When referring to a network, a hub is the most basic
networking device that connects multiple computers
or other network devices. Unlike a network switch or
router, a network hub has no routing tables or
intelligence on where to send information and
broadcasts all network data across each connection.
Network switch
- A network switch (also called switching hub, bridging
hub, officially MAC bridge) is a computer networking
device that connects devices on a computer network,
by using packet switching to receive, process, and
forward data to the destination device.
Managed switch
- Give you more control over your LAN traffic and
offer advanced features to control that traffic. An
unmanaged switch simply allows Ethernet devices
to communicate with one another, such as a PC or
network printer, and those are typically what we call
“plug and play.”
Network Controller/Network Interface Card
- A network interface controller (NIC, also known as a
network interface card, network adapter, LAN
adapter, or physical network interface and by similar
terms) is a computer hardware component that
connects a computer to a computer network.
Wireless router
- A wireless router is a device that performs the
functions of a router and also includes the functions
of a wireless access point. It is used to provide
access to the Internet or a private computer network.
Wireless Access point
- In computer networking, a wireless access point(AP)
is a device that allows wireless devices to connect to
a wired network using Wi-Fi, or related standards.
The AP usually connects to a router (via a wired
network) as a standalone device, but it can also be an
integral component of the router itself.

15
 LAN Cable Tester
- A cable tester is a device that is used to test the
strength and connectivity of a particular type of cable
or other wired assemblies. There is a number of
different types of cable testers, each able to test a
specific type of cable or wire (some may be able to
test different types of cables or wires). The cable
tester can test whether a cable or wire is set up
properly, connected to the appropriate source points
and if the communication strength between the
source and destination is strong enough to serve its
intended purpose.

Network Materials
RJ 45
- Short for Registered Jack-45, an eight-wire
connector used commonly to connect computers
onto local-area networks (LAN), especially
Ethernets. RJ-45 connectors look similar to the
ubiquitous RJ-11 connectors used for connecting
telephone equipment, but they are somewhat wider.

Modular Box (I/O Box)

- Use in a large building, usually place on the wall to
connect telephone lines or network cable easily.

Raceway
- A raceway (sometimes referred to as a raceway
system) is an enclosed conduit that forms a physical
pathway for electrical wiring. Raceways protect
wires and cables from heat, humidity, corrosion,
water intrusion, and general physical threats.
UTP Cable
- Short for unshielded twisted pair, a popular type of
cable that consists of four pairs of unshielded wires
twisted around each other. UTP cable is used
extensively for local-area networks (LANs) and
telephone connections.
Fiber Optic Cable
- An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or
more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The
optical fiber elements are typically individually
coated with plastic layers and contained in a
protective tube suitable for the environment where
the cable will be deployed. Different types of cable
are used for different applications, for example, long-
16
 distance telecommunication, or providing a high-
speed data connection between different parts of a
building.
