    I hope this the rigth spot to place this questions. First I want you to know that I was told to try and doit which I did. I found many of the answer please let me know if they are correct and please help with the few that I could not find. This was a practice quiz.

    I would just like someone to tell me if the answer are correct.

    1. is an example of contention access to media.

    2. _longitudinal Redundacy check_____is the most effective error detection scheme.

    3._Protocol_ is a set of rules that define what a prticular layer of the Internet or OSI model does and provides a defined set of messages that software at that layer needs to understand.

    4. autonatic repeat request is--- "a receiver that detects an error in a message and simply asks the sender to retransmit the message unti it is received without error.

    5. Multiplexer__combines several LOW speed transmissions into ONE HIGH speed transmission or breaks ONE HIGH speed circuit into seeral lower-speed circuits expanding the number of devices that can simultaneously use a circuit.

    6. Asynchronous transmission__is known as start-stop transmission

    7. ethernet__is used to transmit a frame or packet of data at a time.

    8. Attenuation__is the weakening of a signal over distance.

    14. ________ networks can eliminate ALL errors.

    15. Broadband_ refers to high-speed communication circuit such as DSL or cable

    16. WAN_ is a network that typically uses common carrier circuits (like AT&T and Verizon) and spans a large geographical area.

    17. Ethernet_ is a popular byte-count protocol

    18. _______ is an effective prevention for attentuation of a signal.

    19. Media Access control_ is an example of controlled access to media.

    20. Emolate_ is software that translates between software from different vendors and transfers all messages to the correct server from a client.

    21. Simplex _ is one of the best ways to prevent noise on a transmission circuit

    22. POP Packets_ is a type of request sent to a mail server (there are two answers,pick one)

    23. The header_ lists the source and destination email adddress in an email packet.

    24. Parallel Mode_ is the transmission mode in which all 8 bits of data are transferred at the same time as opposed to

    25. Serial_ mode in which each bit is transferred by itself.

    26. Wireless media_ is the primary source of errors in data communcations

    27. _________means ensuring that the sending computer is not transmitting too quickly for the receiving computer.

    28. _______ is the total number of information bits of a packet (message piece) received per second after subtracting the overhead and error corrections bits.

    29. _______ is the process of sending a signal to a client that gives the client permission to transmit OR asks it to receive a packet or message.

    30. _______ means that a signal is sent over transmission lines using variable, wavelike patterns as opposed to

    31. Infrared_ transmission in which there are exactly two possible states.

    32. Transmissions in which there is no return to zero are less susceptible to ________Voltage

    33. Point to point configuration___ is the measurement of circuit capacity

    34. Bandwith_ is the difference between the highest and lowest transmission frequencies

    35. Circuit configuration_is the basic physical layout of the circuit in a network

    36. Full Duplex__is transmission in both directions simultaneously.

    37. A __thin_____ client places little or no application logic on the client but on the server.

    38. client server architectures_ is the most common application architecture in today’s business computing environment.

    39. Multy point Configuration___ is another name for a shared circuit which reduces the amount of cable needed for a network.

    40.The _Dada link__layer of the OSI or Internet telecommunication model is responsible for the physical transmission circuit and creates message boundaries-indicating where a message starts and stops.

    41. Point to Point configuration__ is a type of circuit which is used only by the sending and receiving computer. This type of circuit is quite expensive.

    42. The most common, cost effiecient media is ____Fiber optics__.

    43. Although still fraught with errors, ________ media is becoming VERY popular even for home LANs.

    44. Fiber optics__ is the media with the best security.

    45. The physical and data link layers of both telecommunications models are so closely linked they are collectively called the ___Hardware___ layers.

    46. All but one of the telecommunication models layers are implemented using _____

    47. Circuit_____ is the pathway through which messges travel from one place to another.

    48. Intranet____ is a type of LAN that uses the same technologies as the Internet but is open ONLY to those INSIDE an organization.

    49. Implitude modulation___ is one form of modulation used to transform digital data into analog signals.

    50._ISO____is the organization that makes technical recommendation about telecommunication interfaces on the the Internet

    Some of those don't look right.

    #7 is synchronous transmission.

    #11 is probably overload.

    #12 fiber optic is a better answer (more specific).

    #18 & #21 sound more like insulation or shielding.

    #20 is a description of middleware.

    #33 is probably bandwidth.

    #46 could be software.

    You need to research the rest using your course handouts or recommended texts. As others have said Google is your friend - just enter some key words!
