Transmission Medium and physical layer
Is a types of communication medium in which communication
devices are directly linked with each other.

Media Issues
Frequency range
Some media support higher frequencies than others
Impairments
Different media deform signals differently
Some are more susceptible to noise and distortion
Cost
We’re in the real world
Number of receivers
Broadcast vs. point-to-point

Guided media
Guided media, which are those that provide a pipe or passage
from one device to another, include twisted-pair cable, coaxial
cable, and fiber-optic cable

Twisted-Pair Cable Two copper conductors
Number of pairs are bundled together
More twists mean better quality (eliminate electromagnetic
interference effect)
least expensive, most widely used
limitation : data rate and distance (100 m)

Twisted-Pair Cable comes in two forms
Unshielded twisted pair cable (UTP)
UTP cable is the most common type of telecommunication
medium in use today
The range is suitable for transmitting both data and video.
Advantages of UTP are its cost and ease of use so it is flexible,
and easy to be installed.

Shielded twisted pair cable (STP)
has a metal foil that enhances each pair of insulated
conductors.
more expensive than UTP but less susceptible to noise

Coaxial Cable
Coaxial cable is a copper-cored cable surrounded by a heavy
shielding. Outer conductor shields the inner conductor from
picking up stray signal from the air

Much better than twisted pair in attenuation
High bandwidth but lossy channel
Television distribution
Long distance telephone transmission
Traditional Ethernet LANs like 10Base2, or 10Base5.
Maximum cable length is 500 m

Optical Fiber Cable
Is made of glass or plastic and transmits signals in the form
of light reflect through it.
It uses the principal of total internal reflection theorem
Fiber optic cable has the ability to transmit signals over much
longer distances than coaxial and twisted pair.
![Page 17: Transmission Medium and physical layer - …...Unguided media, or wireless communication, transport electromagnetic waves without using a physical conductor.

It also has the capability to carry information (higher
bandwidth) at vastly greater speeds (long-haul trunks). . This
capacity broadens communication possibilities to include
services such as video conferencing and interactive services.
The cost of fiber optic cabling is comparable to copper cabling
however.
It is difficult to be installed
Less signal attenuation

Propagation Modes
Current technology supports two modes for propagating light
along optical channel.

Fiber sizes
are defined by the ratio of the diameter of their core to the diameter
of their cladding.

Unguided media, or wireless communication, transport
electromagnetic waves without using a physical conductor.
Instead the signals are broadcast though air, and thus are
available to anyone who has a device capable of receiving
them.
Susceptible to interference

Radio Waves
Electromagnetic waves ranging in frequencies between 3kHz
and 1Ghz.
Microwaves
are used for multicast communications, such as radio and
television, and paging systems
Infrared waves
use frequencies from 300 Ghz to 400 Thz, can be used for
short-range communication (1 to 100 m).
