Internet

1) Radio frequency identification.

2) Get it from any device and always there for if you
need it.
3) Could be a bad connection, could loose it if host
shuts it down and the software
4) A computer system that relies on technology
5) In supermarkets

INTERNET
It is a worldwide computer network that
uses protocols to transmit and exchange
data.
NETWORK is an arrangement of
intersecting horizontal and vertical lines
that is capable of sharing information.
PROTACOL is a set of rules that allows
computer systems to connect with
another computer.

FTP - File Transfer

Protocol
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard
network protocol used to transfer computer files
from one host to another host over a TCP-based
network, such as the Internet. FTP is built on a
client-server architecture and uses separate control
and data connections between the client and the
server.

Pop point of provider

Access point to the internet
Location that has all the hardware to allow users
access to the internet
ISPs may use a number of Pop's in an area to allow
good access to the internet

NAP network access

An interchange between networks within the internet
point
ISPs can connect with each other

IP internet protocol

Protocol used to route packets of information across

the internet

TCP

The protocol that takes the data from the application

and passes it to the IP for transfer across the internet
The reverse happens on the other end where the TCP
will reassemble the date.

ISP internet service

ISPs provide the gateway for the people to connect
provider
to the internet

Examples:- sky, BT, AOL, PlusNet, TalkTalk.

ISPs commonly provide other services such as TV &
phone packages and a user specific email address.

NOTES
Connecting backbone:-

main connecting routes

between large networks and local networks
Server:- computer/program that runs the needs of
connected computer
Router:- directs the data packages to the correct
destination/device
Client:- computer that uses the services provided by
the server.

Benefits of Wireless LAN

Mobility
Access to real-time information.
Supports productivity.
Provides service opportunities.

Promotes flexibility. Scalability

Patterns are easily changed.
Works over great distances.
Effective for wide range of user

communities.

Disadvantage of
Wireless LAN

Environmental Conditions
Prone to weather and solar activity.
Constrained by buildings, trees, terrain.

Limit to how much data a carrier wave can transmit without

lost packets impacting performance. Cost
Wireless network cards cost 4 times more than wired
network cards.
The access points are more expensive than hubs and wires.

Signal Bleed Over

Access points pick up the signals of adjacent access points
or overpower their signal.

Wireless!!!!
Definition:- Wireless is when you can use the
internet without having a wire plugged into
your phone, computer, iPad E.T.C
Advantage:- not dragging around a cable and
beaning limited to where you can go.
Disadvantage:- can be slower because every
object In the way will help to slow it down.
Also every device you had will also slow it
down.

Broadband
Definition:- connecting using Ethernet
cables or connections to their network.
Advantage:- better connection, more
reliable, sometimes faster
disadvantage:- less flexible, not
completely safe.

Dial-up
Definition:- access a computer system or
service remotely via a telephone line.
Advantage:- Low Price, Secure connection
your IP address continually changes, Offered
in rural areas you need a phone line
Disadvantage:- Slow speed, Phone line is
required, Busy signals of friends and family
members

TXT TALK
FYI

for your information

LOL laugh out loud
B4 before
ILY I love you
KIT Keep in touch
4EVA forever
THX thanks
R&R read and reply
PLS - please

Emails
Facts: Emails and instant messaging are
two completely different things.
When you send an email its stays on
the email server ( E.G:- Hotmail,
Gmail etc. ) until the receiver opens
it. ( store and forward system )
Basics = address book, attachments
and multiple recipients.

Emails
Advantage:

Emails are delivered extremely fast when compared to traditional

post.
Emails can be sent 24/7, 365 days a year.
Webmail means emails can be sent and received from any computer,
anywhere in the world, that has an Internet connection.
Cheap - when using broadband, each email sent is effectively free.
Emails can be sent to one person or several people.
No limit on how many people you can send it to.

Disadvantage:

Sometimes the internet might be down so you cant send them.

You could get hacked and your email could be changed.
The recipient needs access to the Internet to receive email.
Viruses are easily spread via email attachments (most email providers
scan emails for viruses for you).
Spam - unsolicited email, ie junk mail.

Change the email.

Hi mate.
How are you?
Just sending you an email to
ask you about the new text books. The class is
doing so far so good by the way the students
are asking about a trip. Could you email me
back to let me know how long you will be
getting back to me.
See you later.

Info for emails

TO:Main Recipient
CC:Carbon Copy
BCC:- BLIND Carbon
Copy

Starter
SMTP:- Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is an
Internet standard for electronic mail (e-mail)
transmission.
POP3:- Post Office Protocol 3 is a simple system with
limited selectivity. Incoming messages and
attachments are downloaded when users check their
mail.
IMAP:- The Internet Message Access Protocol
(commonly known as IMAP) is an Application Layer
Internet protocol that allows an e-mail client to access
e-mail on a remote mail server.

DATA EXCHANGE

List of common devices

we use
IPhone

call people and Snapchat - wireless

IPad - face time - wireless
Laptop internet and ppt for HW - wireless
House phone to ring people phone lines
Ps4 play games - internet cables
TV watch TV and use internet - internet cables
Radio listen to capital and radio one - wireless
Xbox play GTA 5 internet cables
Printer / fax to fax people invoices wireless

Data exchange
All

methods of passing data

between devices, computers and
users over a network.
E.G: Computers, phones, machinery
etc.
E.G: Audio, video, image and text.

UTP & STP

UTP:-

Cables are basic pairs of cables twisted

together.

STP:-

Cables are basic pairs of cables but they have a

foil shield.

Max

data transfer= 250 mbps.

Max range = 100m.
Benefits = twisting cancels out some interface & low
cost.
Limitations = slower, less capacity than others & can
only be used for short distances.
E.G: analogue telephone network.

COAXIAL
Solid

wire core separated from a

copper outer by a plastic insulated
shield.
The inner cable transmits data and
the outer connects to the earth.
Max data transfer = 1000mbps.
Max range = 100m.
Benefits = fast & reliable.
Limitations = costs more than
UTP/STP.

Fibre optic
A

technology that uses specially designed bundles of

transparent fibres to transmit light. Note: Some of the
applications of fibre optics are in medicine, where it is
used to view otherwise inaccessible parts of the body,
and in telecommunications, where it is used to
transmit data of all types.
Max data = 2.4gbps.
Max range = 50km.
Benefits = fast, long distances & littler interface.
Limitations = complex connection and equipment
needed.
E.G:- Fibre optic broadband- connects to the BT panels
n the street then use coaxial cables to the house.

infrared
Short

range data transmission using

infrared light.
Max data = 4mbps.
Max range = 100m.
Benefits = reliable.
Limitations = short range, device
must be in the line of sight.
E.G:- TV controllers & some phones
now have infrared.

Microwave
Short

wavelength radio transmission

at very high frequency.
Max data = 300gbps.
Max range = 100m.
Benefits = signal does not degrade
over long distances.
Limitations = device must be I the
line if sight & is affected by weather.
E.G:- Bluetooth.

SATELLITE
Data

is transmitted from the earth to

a satellite which relays it back to
another station on earth.
Max data = HUGE!!!!
Max range = 500km to 36,000km
Benefit = distances & speed
Limitations = expensive!!
E.G:- global communication systems.
