Fiber Optic cabling is the other type of cabling solution we talked about. Fiber optics uses a glass or plastic core to transmit light between each connection. Because we are using light instead of an electrical current, fiber is immune electromagnetic to interference. Fiber is also able to send data at faster speeds and longer distances than copper cabling. Fiber is harder to work with and usually needs a specialized technician to install the connections.
It also handles the load better than a bus does. Also this allows for easy troubleshooting to identify faults in the network node. It’s very organized as each node can transmit the data. Here comes the best part, disadvantages which are somewhat similar to the bus topology. If a single node in the network fails then it will cause the entire network to fail.
Typically, the utilization of switch ports is low and can lead to higher costs compared to other implementations of the hierarchical star. 2. Placing horizontal cross-connections and work group switches closer to equipment outlets is called FTTE (fiber-to-the-telecommunications enclosure). The benefits include savings
ATM uses fixed size packets (53 bytes) for data communication; frame relay uses variable packet sizes depending on the type of information to be sent. Both information blocks have a header in addition to data block and transfer is connection oriented. Frame Relay is used to connect Local Area Networks (LAN) and it is not implemented within a single area network contrast to ATM where data transfers are within a single LAN. ATM is designed to be convenient for hardware implementation and therefore, cost is higher compared to frame relay, which is software controlled. Therefore frame relay is less expensive and upgrading is easier.
* b. Outline the pros and cons of the two alternatives and make a recommendation to Fred about which is better. A: Two alternatives of the downloaded application to communicate with the DRUB server are Client based architecture and client-server architecture. B: Client based architecture: Pros ® It’s a simple architecture that often works very well. Cons ® Limited growth potential ® With high traffic could overload the network could result in poor network performance.
ITT Technical Institute ITT Technical Institute Nathaniel Anderson Nathaniel Anderson Unit 8 Short Answer 4.1 Unit 8 Short Answer 4.1 Title: Differentiating Between File Systems Differentiate between File Allocation Table (FAT) 32 and New Technology File System (NFTS). The differences between FAT32 and NFTS is that NFTS is more robust and effective simple because of its advanced features and functionalities. FAT, in general, comprises of overly simplistic data structures, hence making operations more time consuming. NFTS functionalities are far more-over powering since it makes use of advanced data structures to improve reliability, disk space utilization and overall performance. * When it comes to large USB flash drives, the FAT32 file system is the intended primarily used.
Hardware RAID requires specialized hardware to handle the drives and is more reliable compared to software RAID. Software RAID is considerably cheaper than hardware RAID and takes up a portion of the
8. Describe the importance of this order. Include affect on force of contraction and fatigue. This order is set up in order to increase the amount of force necessary for the work load while also limiting fatigue. The slow oxidative fibers are set up to help with weaker amount of force but are very resistant to fatigue.
A slower process than MIG, it produces a more precise weld and can be used at lower amperages for thinner metal and can be used on exotic metals. TIG does require quite a bit more time than MIG to learn. It is similar in technique to gas welding. TIG can be used with pure helium or argon as an inert shielding gas to protect the weld pool from the atmosphere. (Nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other elements cause weld defects if introduced to the weld pool.)
An activity can have more than one cost driver attached to it. For example, a production activity may have the following associated cost-drivers: a machine, machine operator(s), floor space occupied, power consumed, and the quantity of waste and/or rejected output. (BusinessDictionary.com, 2013)" I think the company would do better with Activity Based Costing (ABC) because this allocation method is more accurate because it takes all cost related factors into consideration. The first way the company was allocating department costs was and even three way split, which was undercutting Fabricating, which needs more funds, and this method was overcompensating Laminating and Assembling, which require less. With the ABC Method, the costs are factored by the different cost drivers, such as machinery, staff, number of parts needed, amount of products made, as well as direct material costs and direct labor hours.
