1
What is the primary purpose of EIA Standards?
To control wireless network access.
To regulate internet browsing speed.
To determine how computers communicate with each other.
To manage cloud storage.
2
A logical sequence in building transmission rates in a network is called a ______________
HIERARCHY
HIERARCHY
HIERARCHY
Encryption
3
how does an increase in the "category" of a twisted pair cable generally impact its performance?
It has no effect on the data rate, but improves physical durability.
It primarily affects the cable's susceptibility to physical damage.
It decreases the maximum data rate that can be transmitted.
It increases the maximum data rate that can be transmitted.
4
BONUS: How old is Sr AMN Anuoa?
Older than Adam & Eve
He's never not existed
He was created before the sun
Probably in his 40's
5
What factors determine the EIA Standards for communication?
Distance to the distant end and data rate.
Time of day and network traffic.
Brand of computer and software.
Number of users on the network.
6
EIA-232C is known as what previously?
IEEE 802.11
TCP/IP
HTTP
RS-232C
7
Fiber optic cable transmits data at faster speeds and in greater amounts than coaxial cable.
True
False
8
What is the primary purpose of time of day restriction bandwidth allocation?
Ensure enough bandwidth is set aside for specific times.
Allocate bandwidth for peak periods only.
It does not have a specific purpose.
Provide bandwidth based on random demand.
9
A key distinction of wireless transmission is that:
The transmission is wireless, but nodes are typically connected with cable
It eliminates time delays entirely due to the absence of physical wires.
It exclusively supports broadband transmission, allowing multiple signals.
All nodes in the network are interconnected via wireless links.
10
BONUS: WHO IS THIS MAN?
Putnam's Dad
Someone's son
Debow's Dad
Tate's Dad
11
Unbalanced lines are characterized as carrying two identical input signals 180º out of phase with each other.
True
False
12
A major disadvantage of Wireless Media is:
Time Delay
Cost
Security
Encryption
13
What is an advantage of demand-assigned bandwidth?
No dedicated channels.
More efficient than conventional.
Requires more configuration than conventional.
Less efficient than conventional.
14
In dynamic bandwidth allocation, what can exceed total bandwidth?
Scheduled bandwidth.
Conventional bandwidth.
Fixed bandwidth amount.
Combined data rates.
15
Time of day restriction bandwidth allocation ensures what?
Priority bandwidth at certain times.
Lower cost.
More bandwidth for all.
Less congestion at night.
16
Coaxial cable transmits data faster and in greater amounts than fiber optic cable.
False
True
17
What is the fundamental requirement for a network to be formed?
A complex system of servers
At least two users communicating with each other
A single high-speed connection
A wireless connection only
18
What is a key characteristic of conventional bandwidth allocation?
Bandwidth is allocated based on time of day.
Bandwidth is dynamically adjusted through encyption.
Bandwidth is demand-assigned.
Bandwidth is a fixed amount.
19
BONUS: AMN Jones is currently wearing a belt.
True
False
20
EIA Standards specify which of the following?
Cables, connectors, modems, and line drivers.
Applications used for communication.
Operating system software.
User interface designs.
21
What is the responsibility of the Channel Service Unit (CSU)?

Providing compatibility between communication devices.
22
How do the DSU and CSU relate to each other in their operation?
They always operate as entirely separate devices.
They always operate as a single, encrypted device.
The CSU is always embedded within the DSU.
They can operate as separate devices or combined in the same device.
23
Fiber optic cable only supports voice traffic, while coaxial cable supports data.
True
False
24
Which type of transmission media is LEAST susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and noise?
Coaxial cable using broadband
