Physical layer (Layer 1)
There are no messagesbits are sent individually Concerned with transmission media, plugs, signaling methods, propagation effects Chapter 3: Signaling, UTP, optical fiber, and topologies Wireless transmission is covered in Chapter 5

A signal is a disturbance in the media that propagates (travels) down the transmission medium to the receiver If propagation effects are too large, the receiver will not be able to read the received signal 3
Data Representation
Binary-Encoded Data
Computers store and process data in binary representations
Binary means two There are only ones and zeros Called bits

Non-Binary Data Must be Encoded into Binary

Binary-Encoded Data
Some data are inherently binary
48-bit Ethernet addresses 32-bit IP addresses Need no further encoding
There are 10 kinds of people those who understand binary and those who dont
Basic Rules
0 +0 =0
0 +1 =1
1 +0 =1
1 +1 =10
1 +1 +1 =11
Each added bit doubles the number of alternatives that can be represented 11

Powers of 2
Each additional bit doubles the number of possibilities Start with one you know and double or halve until you have what you need E.g., if you know 8 is 256, 10 must be 4 times as large or 1,024. Bits 1 2 3 4 5 6 Alternatives 2 4 8 16 32 64

Signaling
Clock Cycle Light Source Off= 0 On= 1 On= 1 Off= 0 On= 1 Off= 0 On= 1
Optical Fiber
During each clock cycle, light is turned on for a one or off for a zero.

This type of signaling is used in 232 serial ports.

Despite a 50% drop in voltage, the receiver will still know that the signal is a zero

Digital signaling has a FEW possible states per clock cycle (4 in this slide) This allows it to send multiple bits per clock cycle This increases the bit transmission rate per clock cycle It reduces error resistance because differences between states are smaller 24

3. On/Off Switch
Equation 3-1: Bit rate = Baud rate * Bits sent per clock cycle
Baud rate is the number of clock cycles per second If the clock cycle is 1/1000 of a second, the baud rate is 1,000 baud Bit rate is then the number of clock cycles per second times the number of bits sent per clock cycle If the three bits are sent per clock cycle, the bit rate is 3,000 bps or 3 kbps

Bits is the number of bits to be sent per clock cycle States is the number of states needed to send that many bits

Doubling the number of states transmits one more bit per clock cycle. Rapidly diminishing returns to adding states

Solution:
You have to send 5 bits per clock cycle (baud) This will require 32 states States = 2bits States = 25 States = 32

Solution:
With four states, 3 information bits can be sent per clock cycle (8=2X) [Equation 3-2] X=3 With a clock cycle of 1/10,000, baud rate is 10,000 baud The bit rate will be 30 kbps (3 bits/clock cycle times 10,000 clock cycles per second). [Equation 3-1]

1. Signal
Signals in UTP attenuate with propagation distance. If attenuation is too great, the signal will not be readable by the receiver.

Crosstalk Interference
Terminal crosstalk interference Normally is the biggest EMI problem for UTP 42

UTP Limitations
Limit cords to 100 meters
Limits BOTH noise AND attenuation problems to an acceptable level
Do not untwist wires more than 1.25 cm (a half inch) when placing them in RJ-45 connectors
Limits terminal crosstalk interference to an acceptable level
Neither completely eliminates the problems but they usually reduce the problems to negligible levels

Amplitude
1 Second 3. Frequency is the number of cycles per second. 1 Hz = 1 cycle per second In this case, there are two cycles in 1 second, so frequency is two hertz (2 Hz).

Light Wavelengths
Light signals are measured by wavelength Light wavelengths measured in nanometers (nm)
There are three fiber wavelength windows with good propagation characteristics
850 nm
1310 nm 1550 nm
62.5 micron fiber is more common in the US but does not carry signals as far as 50 micron fiber
Also uses inexpensive 850 nm transceivers
Multimode fiber with 850 nm signaling cannot span the kilometer distances needed by carriers, but can span the 200-300 meters needed in LAN fiber cords
59
Multimode Fiber
In thicker fiber, light only travels in one of several allowed modes. Different modes travel different distances and arrive at different times (See that Mode 1 light takes longer to arrive than Mode 2 light.) If distance is too long, modes from successive light pulses will overlap. This is modal distortion. If it is too large, signals will be unreadable. Modal distortion is the main limitation on distance in multimode fiber. 60
61
62
With greater mobile bandwidth, can go faster, farther, or some combination of the two
63
Some vendors with higher-than-standard modal bandwidth can carry traffic farther
64
This requires expensive long-wavelength laser light sources (1,310 and 1,550 nm)
It also requires expensive single-mode fiber with a very narrow core (8.3 microns)
65
No modal dispersion (discussed earlier), so can span long distances without this distortion
Expensive but necessary in WANs 66
