Best Answer

Bridges can compensate for speed discrepancies of WAN and LAN connections by using its buffering capabilities. This is done by storing the incoming data in on-board buffers and sending it over the serial link at a rate that the serial link can accommodate.

What is the function of a bandwidth router?

The function of a bandwidth router is to moniter all the connections that are to do with the router and helps you work out how much bandwidth each connection is using.

What is -3db bandwidth?

Bandwidth is typically measured from the two -3dB points on each end of the response curve. You find the two points where the response is -3dB (half power) and measure the distance between them. That is your bandwidth.

The relationship of the bandwidth required for double-sideband emitted carrier AM to the bandwidth of the modulating signal of?

In Amplitude Modulation (AM), specifically in the case of Double Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSB-SC) or Full Carrier (DSB-FC) AM, the required bandwidth is twice the bandwidth of the modulating signal. If the modulating signal has a bandwidth of B Hz, the bandwidth required for AM would be 2B Hz. This is because both the upper and lower sidebands of the carrier wave are utilized in the modulation process, each consuming bandwidth equivalent to the original signal.


How do you connect onewireless broadband to ten computers and use same bandwidth same speed?

You can't ! Each computer would require an equal share of the available bandwidth from the router !


How does a USB host controller work?

The USB Process When the host powers up, it queries all of the devices connected to the bus and assigns each one an address. This process is called enumeration -- devices are also enumerated when they connect to the bus. The host also finds out from each device what type of data transfer it wishes to perform: Interrupt - A device like a mouse or a keyboard, which will be sending very little data, would choose the interrupt mode. Bulk - A device like a printer, which receives data in one big packet, uses the bulk transfer mode. A block of data is sent to the printer (in 64-byte chunks) and verified to make sure it is correct. Isochronous - A streaming device (such as speakers) uses the isochronous mode. Data streams between the device and the host in real-time, and there is no error correction. The host can also send commands or query parameters with control packets. As devices are enumerated, the host is keeping track of the total bandwidth that all of the isochronous and interrupt devices are requesting. They can consume up to 90 percent of the 480 Mbps of bandwidth that is available. After 90 percent is used up, the host denies access to any other isochronous or interrupt devices. Control packets and packets for bulk transfers use any bandwidth left over (at least 10 percent). The Universal Serial Bus divides the available bandwidth into frames, and the host controls the frames. Frames contain 1,500 bytes, and a new frame starts every millisecond. During a frame, isochronous and interrupt devices get a slot so they are guaranteed the bandwidth they need. Bulk and control transfers use whatever space is left. The technical links at the end of the article contain lots of detail if you would like to learn more.


What advantage do switches have over a passive hub?

Switches provide each computer with the full network bandwidth when routing packets, where a hub splits the bandwidth of the network across all the ports it has.
