What else can I help you with?
A network backbone is the WHAT that connects the hubs switches and routers on a network?
cabling
Where can I find a magazine about network hubs and switches?
There is no magazine that is specific to network hubs and switches. However, PC Magazine is a computer magazine available on newsstands and MozillaQuest (http://mozillaquest.com/index.html) is an online magazine that may include articles and other information on network hubs and switches.
What are the purposes of switches and hubs?
Switches increase the number of collision domains in the network.
Boosting A Wireless Network With Ethernet Switches?
Optimizing the performance of a wireless internet network requires the proper hardware. A router could be combined with an Ethernet switch to get the best possible speeds of data transfers and overall performance. Ethernet Switches offer more Ethernet ports than routers. For example, the number of Ethernet ports in Switches range between five and twelve. Ethernet switches or hubs also help to prioritize the data, which improves download and upload speeds when using a wireless internet network.
When is the appropriate time to replace hubs with switches?
As soon as possible. Switches are much more efficient than hubs because hubs send the data to all the connect nodes, unlike switches that only forward packets to the appropriate node. Hubs cause a lot of packet collisions which reduces the efficiency of your network. __________________ I was going to say "Now, because switches are so cheap". But your answer is better.
Which brands of network hubs and switches provide the most connections?
There are plenty of 64-port switches, but they are for business and be prepared to pay big prices for them.
What is max no of hops in hypercube network to go from one node to another?
This depends on if you are using hubs or switches.
What is the most common central device used today to connect computers to a network?
Routers, Switches, Modems, and Hubs, but mostly Routers
Why it is easier to scan a network that is connected with Hubs rather than with Switches?
It is easier to scan a network connected by hubs than by switches because a switch can limit traffic between subnets, whereas a hub cannot, and would therefore require more overhead to facilitate a scan.
How do you upgrade from a 10BaseT to 100BaseT network?
Simply upgrade your network hardware to 100baseT compatible devices and components, eg: Hubs, switches,routers, cables and computers(network cards)
How do hubs segregate packets?
Hubs segregate packets because hubs are used as switches. Through a VLAN, hubs, when used as switches, can easily segregate incoming and outgoing traffic.
Does price reflect quality in network hubs and switches?
Price is not always relatve to quality,it is more an indicator of the age of the technology.
