Mention types of transmitions media that the world today uses?

Electric current is a transmission medium which can be used to transfer data across a wire for example ( copper wires). Radio waves is a transmission medium which can be used to carry data through the air. The above mention mediums are known as data transmission media.


What is the amount of data transmitted on a transmission medium over a period of time?

The amount of data transmitted on a transmission medium over a period of time is referred to as bandwidth. It is typically measured in bits per second (bps) and indicates the maximum data transfer rate of that medium. Higher bandwidth allows for more data to be transmitted concurrently, improving the efficiency and speed of communication. Factors such as network congestion, signal quality, and technology used can affect the actual data transmission rate.

Suppose transmission channels become virtually error free.Is the data link layer still needed?

The data link layer is still needed for flow control over the transmission channel and for framing the data. In a multiple access medium such as a LAN, the data link layer is required to coordinate access to the shared medium among the multiple users.
