10. 10 © 2012 InfoComm International Wireless Connections: Bluetooth  Low cost  Short range (10 m)  Point to point connections  Built in encryption  WPAN

11. 11 © 2012 InfoComm International Fiber Optic Connections  Single and multi mode  Bandwidth (up to 40Gbps /sec)  SC and ST connectors Single Mode Multi Mode

12. 12 © 2012 InfoComm International OSI Refence Model  Seven layer international standard process  Allows for product developments

13. 13 © 2012 InfoComm International Layer (IT Side)Layer (AV use) 7 Provides standard services 6 Encodes and decodes data 5 Controls links between users 4 Management of data packets 3 Routing of packets 2 Defines link operations 1 Defines relationship between devices and cabling 7 Data for Applications 6 Unpackages Data 5 Ensures Data Quality 4 Data Transfer 3 Internet Protocol (IP) 2 Ethernet Standard 1 Cabling/Patchbays OSI and AV

14. 14 © 2012 InfoComm International Network Interface Card (NIC)  Connection between device and network  MAC is hardware address for the NIC  00:13:CE:D5:1C:21

15. 15 © 2012 InfoComm International MAC Address  MAC is hardware address for the NIC  uses a 48-bit number, such as: 00:13:CE:D5:1C:21 ofirst part indicates the manufacturer osecond part is a serial number  MAC address is one of the lowest levels of communication on a network Notice the MAC address on the NIC. MAC is hardware address for the NIC

16. 16 © 2012 InfoComm International Internet Protocol (IP) Addressing  IP Addresses define the device and its location on a network

17. 17 © 2012 InfoComm International Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4)  Made of four, eight bit "chunks" called octets  Example: 192.168.1.25

18. 18 © 2012 InfoComm International Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)  Uses eight groups of four hexadecimal numbers  Looks like FEDC:BA98:7654:3210:FEDC:BA98:7654:32 10  Can use the MAC address within its numbering scheme

19. 19 © 2012 InfoComm International Subnet Mask Indicates how many devices can be on a network.

20. 20 © 2012 InfoComm International Static IP Addressing Manually assigned IP address Method of assignment varies For devices requiring permanent addresses

21. 21 © 2012 InfoComm International Dynamic IP Addressing Automated process Server leases temporary address (DHCP) Based on pool of allowable addresses

22. 22 © 2012 InfoComm International Domain Name System Keeps track of all equipment on the network Allows assignment of text names to equipment Allows administrators to assign text names to equipment so its easier for people to manage resources.

23. 23 © 2012 InfoComm International Network Switch Collects MAC addresses and stores them in Memory Hubs can't do this Managed and unmanaged devices for a single network

24. 24 © 2012 InfoComm International Network Routers, Gateways, and Bridges Router has switch features can connect multiple networks together Gateways pass traffic to routers routers look to the gateway to find names (DNS addresses) that are not found on the local network. Bridges connects two different types of networks together translates one network protocol to another protocol

25. 25 © 2012 InfoComm International Networking Summary Networks are now a major part of AV It wants to keep those networks secure Dedicated devices and standardization make worldwide communication possible
