Digital Signal Transmission
1. By varying an electrical signal when it passes over a wire that is typically made of copper.
2. By varying the power of light as sent over a glass optical fiber.
3. By varying the radio waves sent through space, which is commonly referred to as wireless communications.
![Page 3: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Common terminologies in waves
• Amplitude: height of wave (volt, meter, amp, etc, etc) which usually means strength of waves.
• Frequency: number of waves per second (hertz=1/second). High frequency means more waves coming in one second.
• Period: time between each waves. Higher period also means lower frequency (less waves coming in each second)
![Page 4: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Sine wave
- Periodic- Continuously
varying- T = 1/F (T: period;
F: frequency)
![Page 5: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Square wave
- Periodic- NOT continuously
varying- T = 1/F (T: period; F:
frequency)
![Page 6: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Other waves (Optional)
• Triangle
• Sawtooth
![Page 7: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Analog and digital wave
• Analog wave: usually refers to sine wave as it can easily presents many natural events.
• Digital wave: usually associated with square wave because it presents binary digits.
![Page 8: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Combined waves
• Frequency of wave 1 is 300 hz
• Frequency of wave 2 is 500 hz
• When they are added together, blue wave presents the complex combined wave.
![Page 9: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Signals and Noise • Signal: the desired binary digits presented
by the energy (electric, light and radio) transmission.
• Noise: any environmental interference while receiver detects the data signal.
• Other factors might degrade signals: grade of the cable, connector and installation (connection), distance of cable connection and network design.
![Page 10: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Impedance and attenuation
• Impedance contains the material resistance and other resistant forces in a circuit.
• Attenuation- the amount of signals that a cable will absorb is a measure of its attenuation. Lower attenuation indicates higher quality conductors and cables.
• Voltage (electrical power) and light power would decrease while travelling alone copper wires and optic fiber cables.
![Page 11: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Coaxial cable
• Shield must be grounded.
• Plastic jacket can offer protection against moisture and insulation.
![Page 12: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable
• Shielding provides better electrical signals by reducing noise and attenuation.
• Shielding makes the cable more expensive, heavier and hard to bend.
![Page 13: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
STP - 3 insulations
• Total 3 insulations:1.Each thin wire is covered
in color-coded plastic insulation
2.Each pair of wires is twisted with a insulator called a pair shield around them
3.All the wires in the cable (usually 4 pairs) are covered by a shield called the overall shield.
![Page 14: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Single bit

1/100,000,000 of 1 second
(100,000,000b = 100Mb)

How to maintain quality
• Well network design (will be taught later)• Certified technician who usually has better
installation knowledge • Certified cables (better quality connectors
and cables)• Well insulation (new cable usually does
not have broken insulation )• Environment check and tests.
![Page 30: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
CrosstalkWhen current flows over a nearby wire, it generate
EMI and cause crosstalk.
• Near-end crosstalk (NEXT)• Far end crosstalk (FEXT)• Power sum near-end crosstalk (PSNEXT)
How to read NEXT?NEXT is expressed as a negative value of
decibels. -30dB means less NEXT.
![Page 31: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
NEXT (Near-end crosstalk)
• It occurs near the source of the test signal• NEXT current direction is opposite to the
transmitted test signal direction• Test signal and NEXT test are on same
side of the connection.
![Page 32: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
FEXT (Far End Crosstalk)
• Used to test crosstalk in the same circumstances of NEXT
• The only difference to NEXT is to detect a signal crossing (disruption) that is located at a distance from the point of measurement.
• FEXT may cause less noise than NEXT
![Page 33: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
PSNEXT (Power sum Near-end Crosstalk)• PSNEXT is to add all
pairs’ NEXT together.
• Becomes a part of TIA/EIA 568B tests.
![Page 34: DCN286 INTRODUCTION TO DATA COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081418/56815b95550346895dc99934/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Standard Tests for Cable certification
• Wire map: Identify physical error of any miss-wiring• Insertion loss: Lose of signal strength, expressed in dB.• NEXT: A higher value is desirable, meaning better cable performance• PSNEXT: Combined NEXT• Equal-level Far-end Crosstalk (ELFEXT): FEXT is usually less detrimental
to a signal than NEXT• Power sum equal-level far-end crosstalk (PSELFEXT): sum of all FEXT• Return loss: measured in dB and indication of bad crimp or bad connection
at the RJ45 plug.• Propagation delay: tests for the time it takes for the signal to be sent from
one end and received by the other end • Cable length: Verify not exceed 100m. Also find shortcut or where the
broken point is• Delay skew: Tests for difference between the fastest and slowest set of
wire pairs. Lower is better. Could be between 25-50 nanoseconds over 100m
