What is a Cisco 24 port gigabit switch used for?
It is not a complete necessity to have a gigabit Ethernet switch but it will increase processing speed to 1,000 Mbits per second. Earlier forms of the Ethernet switches were in the 10 to 100 megabit range.
Ethernet Cable?

Differentiate between Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
Gigabit = 1,000,000,000 bps (bits per second) = 125,000,000 Bps (Bytes per second) = 125 MBps (Megabytes per second (10^3)) = 119.209... MiBps (Mebibytes per second (2^10)) 10 Gigabit = 10,000,000,000 bps (bits per second) = 1,250,000,000 Bps (Bytes per second) = 1.25 GBps (Gigabytes per second (10^3)) = 1.164... GiBps (Gibibytes per second (2^10)) The difference is obvious. 10 Gigabit = 10 x Gigabit or 10:1 Gigabit Ethernet is behind, it's less than 1/4 the speed of USB 3.0. Regardless of availability of 1Gb+ Internet, there are many across the network uses for having 10Gb+ Ethernet. It's standard to have routers 1Gbps wired, and 300Mbps wireless, but nothing above for consumers. You will have to wait.
How many pairs are used on a straight through cable?
When using a straight through cable for networking, only 3 pairs are used.
What does Ethernet cable used for?
ethernet cables are used to connect many items. Such as:Printer to computer,Ps3 to laptop,ps3 to router
Does the Ethernet cable come with the PC?
In many cases it does, but I have purchased them both ways.
How many twisted pairs are in Category 6 cable?
The question makes no sense. A cable cannot have volts in it. Voltage is measured across an element. I assume that you are asking what the voltage between the signal lines and the answer is dependent on what you are connected to. Gigabit ethernet is one level, 10/100 is another and so on.
How many cable pairs can be found in a Cat-5E cable?
Four pairs. Only one pair required for normal LAN operation though.
Can the length of an Ethernet be increased to many segments of 500 meter each merely by adding a repeater to connect each additional segment?
Yes, 2.5km is the maximal operating range of ethernet, or basically 5 repeaters. Repeaters known as repeaters are cheap but rare, but a switch will do the same thing...since signal conditioning is part of their basic funtionality. Beyond 2.5km, you will need a fiberoptic backbone. If your looking into gigabit, you will need high quality cable and straight runs....but mostly repeaters have to be put in at 100m in a corporation to achieve a full gigabit thoughput, otherwise the switch will reneg down to 100..
Can a modem either DSL Cable style also be a router and why?
a modem takes cable input and output goes to only 1 Ethernet cable. A router takes the 1 Ethernet cable and makes it so that you can hook up four or five Ethernet cables. a wireless router allows you to hook up 4 or 5 Ethernet cables and unlimited amounts of wireless receivers. If you only have 1 computer, you don't need a router. You only need 1 Ethernet cable. To put it in simple terms : Yes, many newer external modems have full router and firewall functionality built-in to a single device
If you are using cable broadband how do you connect your laptop to internet from another area in your home?
You purchase a wireless router and short ethernet cable (some routers include the cable) and connect it to the cable modem output with the short ethernet cable, then connect the ethernet cable that was connected to your modem outputs to the wireless router outputs. This will only work if your Laptop has WiFi capability The prices of wireless router vary greatly and many can be purchased less than for retail price. Review online prices before making a purchase to prevent overpaying.
What is the mains cable used for when connecting to the computer?
There are many cables and components to a computer. The main cables for connecting the computer would be the power cable, and an Ethernet cable for connecting a non wireless PC to the internet.
