networking hardware - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Enables the data to travel from one device to another, serves as a conduit.
    - - Regenerates and amplifies data before sending to other devices, similar to passive hubs
    - - Include extra features such as network management, provide diagnostics detecting network issues
- - - - allows multiple devices to on a local network to share a single IP address
- - - - long-distance and high-performance data networking
  - - - by transmitting data through the wires using electrical signals
    - - wired local area network (LAN)
      - wide area network
  - - - First layer: dielectric
        
        provides distance between the core conductor and outer layers
        
        provides isulation
        
        next layers: the shield
        
        keeps electrical impulses and radio transmissions out.
      - surrounding layers of shielding stop any signal loss
        
        also called attenuation loss
      - help reduce EMI.
    - - radio frequencies
- - - - phone lines
      - coaxial cables (see: cables)
      - other typs of wiring
- - - - provides a greater communication range
- - - - recieve data
      - foreward data
  - - - computers
      - wireless acess points
      - printers
      - servers
- - - - allows you to connect your devices to the Internet
    - - exclusive gateway
        
        restricts the sequence flow
        
        exactly one alternative is selected from a set of alternatives at runtime
    - - links networks by performing translation between different protocols
      - data formats at the network boundary
    - - hardware device
        
        converts analog telephony traffic into digital data packets for transmission over the Internet
    - - translation device
        
        converts media streams between dissimilar telecommunications networks
    - - acts as a "front door" for applications to access:
        
        data
        
        business logic
        
        functionality from backend services
    - - connects IoT devices to edge infrastructure
    - - combination of hardware and software
        
        the hardware
        
        permits data to flow from one network to another
        
        physically unable to send any information at all back to the source network
        
        the software
        
        replicates databases
        
        emulates protocol servers and devices
  - - - allows data to flow from one discrete network to another
