    • C.

      Increases the wavelength and phase angles of the baseband frequency used for transmission

    • D.

      Moves the baseband of a circuit by shifting it to a higher frequency

    • E.

      Reduces baseband signal velocity more than frequency division multiplexing

    Correct Answer
    B. Splits the communication circuit vertically (with time slots) instead of horizontally
    Explanation
    Time division multiplexing (TDM) differs from frequency division multiplexing (FDM) because it splits the communication circuit vertically (with time slots) instead of horizontally. In TDM, the available bandwidth is divided into discrete time slots, and each slot is assigned to a different signal. This allows multiple signals to be transmitted sequentially over the same communication circuit. In contrast, FDM divides the bandwidth into separate frequency channels, with each channel carrying a different signal simultaneously. Therefore, TDM and FDM differ in how they allocate the resources of the communication circuit to transmit multiple signals.

    ***Switch-based Ethernet:

    • A.

      Uses a hub to connect computers

    • B.

      Has a physical topology of a ring

    • C.

      Has a logical topology of a ring

    • D.

      Has a logical topology of a bus

    • E.

      Usually enables all attached circuits to send or receive packets simultaneously

    Correct Answer
    E. Usually enables all attached circuits to send or receive packets simultaneously
    Explanation
    Switch-based Ethernet usually enables all attached circuits to send or receive packets simultaneously. This is because switches use a technique called packet switching, where they analyze the destination address of each incoming packet and forward it to the appropriate port. This allows for more efficient use of network bandwidth as multiple devices can transmit and receive data at the same time without interference. Unlike hubs, which share the bandwidth among all connected devices, switches provide dedicated bandwidth to each port, ensuring better performance and faster data transfer rates.

    ***Each of the circuits connected to a switch is a separate _______________ circuit connecting the switch to a device on the network.

    • A.

      Multipoint

    • B.

      Point-to-point

    • C.

      Shared

    • D.

      Ring

    • E.

      Star

    Correct Answer
    B. Point-to-point
    Explanation
    Each of the circuits connected to a switch is a separate point-to-point circuit connecting the switch to a device on the network. This means that each circuit provides a dedicated connection between the switch and a specific device, allowing for direct communication without interference from other devices. This type of circuit is commonly used in networks where devices need to communicate directly with each other, such as in a local area network (LAN) setup.

    ***Which of the following is not a WLAN standard?

    • A.

      802.15

    • B.

      802.11a

    • C.

      802.3

    • D.

      802.11b

    • E.

      802.11g

    Correct Answer
    C. 802.3
    Explanation
    802.3 is not a WLAN standard because it is actually an Ethernet standard. WLAN stands for Wireless Local Area Network, which refers to wireless communication within a limited area. On the other hand, 802.3 is an Ethernet standard that defines the physical and data link layer specifications for wired Ethernet networks. Therefore, 802.3 is not applicable to WLANs.

    ***CSMA/CA is an acronym for:

    • A.

      Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Acknowledgment

    • B.

      Carrier Sense Mode Access with Carrier Avoidance

    • C.

      Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance

    • D.

      Carrier Sensory Multiple Access without Collision Acknowledgment

    • E.

      Carrier Sense Multiple Acknowledgment with Collision Avoidance

    Correct Answer
    C. Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance
    Explanation
    CSMA/CA stands for Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance. This protocol is used in wireless networks to avoid collisions when multiple devices try to transmit data simultaneously. Before transmitting, a device checks the channel for any ongoing transmissions (carrier sense). If the channel is clear, the device waits for a random amount of time (backoff) to further reduce the chances of collisions. This random backoff helps in avoiding multiple devices from transmitting at the same time, thus reducing collisions and improving network efficiency.

    ***Which of the following is not determined by a site survey?

    • A.

      Feasibility of the desired coverage

    • B.

      Potential sources of interference

    • C.

      The security of the WLAN

    • D.

      Estimated number of access points needed to provide coverage

    • E.

      Current locations of the wired network into which the WLAN will connect.

    Correct Answer
    C. The security of the WLAN
    Explanation
    A site survey is conducted to gather information about the physical environment and assess factors that can affect the performance and coverage of a wireless network. It helps in determining the feasibility of desired coverage, identifying potential sources of interference, estimating the number of access points needed, and identifying the current locations of the wired network. However, the security of the WLAN is not directly determined by a site survey. Security measures such as encryption protocols, authentication methods, and firewall configurations are implemented separately to ensure the security of the WLAN.
