Discussion Board Assignment Help-What is a cable modem?
Discussion Board Question 1
You were just hired as a network engineer for a medium-size firm. You have multiple offices and you and your boss take turns working from each local office. You notice that when your boss works from your office, he uses a computer with a modem to dial into the remote office. You found that to be a very antiquated approach. Explain the following in detail:
- What is a cable modem?
- How is data transmitted across from his local computer to the remote location via the cable modem?
- Provide a detailed explanation of what transmission signaling is being used.
- Discuss the transmission signaling that will be leveraged, and state the benefits, in any.
Please submit your assignment.
Discussion Question 2
The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.
At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Friday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.
The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.
Data transmission can occur by way of analog signal or digital signal.
- In your own words, discuss digital data signal and analog data signal.
- Which do you think is better, and why?
