There are many different connectors used on fiber and copper network links. In this video, you’ll learn about the various kinds of connectors that are used on common networking equipment. << Previous Video: Optical Fiber Next: Network Transceivers >> One popular fiber optic connector is the LC or local connector. This connector has two different […]

Network administrators work with many different types of copper cables. In this video, you’ll learn about cable categories, coax, twinax, and 568A and 568B termination standards. << Previous Video: Provider Links Next: Optical Fiber >> Copper cabling is the foundation of our Ethernet networks. If you have a network at home, you’re usually connecting with

There are many different ways to connect with a network provider. In this video, you’ll learn about satellite networking, copper, DSL, cable broadband, fiber, and metro Ethernet links. << Previous Video: Virtual Networks Next: Copper Cabling >> We often think about connecting to the internet using a local wireless connection or a wired Ethernet cable.

Just as servers have moved to virtual systems, our networks have also become virtualized. In this video, you’ll learn about network function virtualization (NFV), hypervisors, vSwitches, and virtual network interface cards (vNICs). << Previous Video: WAN Termination Next: Provider Links >> The way we’ve managed data has changed rapidly over the last few years, and

If your organization connects to the Internet, then a WAN termination point is located somewhere on the local network. In this video, you’ll learn about the demarcation point and the use of smartjacks. << Previous Video: Network Types Next: Virtual Networks >> If you’re using services from a wide area network provider or an internet

There are many different ways to connect one network with another. In this video, you’ll learn about peer-to-peer, client-server, LAN, MAN, WAN, WLAN, PAN, CAN, and other network types. << Previous Video: Network Topologies Next: WAN Termination >> With a peer-to-peer network, there’s not a server or a client. Instead, every device is a server

There are many different network types and topologies. In this video, you’ll learn about star, ring, bus, mesh, hybrid, and wireless topologies. << Previous Video: Data Communication Next: Network Types >> When you’re designing, building or troubleshooting a network, you’ll be using a network topology type that can vary depending on the technology you’re using.

Network communication consists of a series of well-orchestrated standards and processes. In this video, you’ll learn about data encapsulation and decapsulation, TCP flags, maximum transmission unit, and IP fragmentation. << Previous Video: Understanding the OSI Model Next: Network Topologies >> Getting data moved from one part of the network to the other relies on something

We use the OSI model to describe application use, network activity, and troubleshooting tasks. In this video, you’ll learn about the layers of the OSI model and how they apply to real-world networking. << Previous Video: How to Pass Your N10-008 Network+ Exam Next: Data Communication >> If you work for any amount of time
