Color Code Standards

With twisted-pair Ethernet Cables, there are two wiring Standards:

• Straight-Through- 568a-568a
• Crossover- 568a-568b

(This is due to avoiding Collisions of data within Trasmission between the same wires)

• If two like layered Devices are connected to each other, a crossover cable is used, which are primarily the four wires.

Straight-through andCrossover Cables Configuration

• Straight-Through cables Represent most Ethernet cables which are used to connect unlike Devices within the network layers to each other: Pc To Switch

A channel is a generally accepted stopping point, being somewhere that we know other people or devices will be listening.

2.4 GHz frequency channels

With a wireless network operating on a 2.4 GHz frequency, all devices should be on the channels of:1,6,11

SSID Security

To increase the Security of a wireless Network, you should disable the SSID.By doing this the Network becomes invisible to any users searching for networks increasing the overall security.

02

Data Encryption

To avoid the interception of data before it's transmitted, the data should be encrypted.Due to the data being Encrypted, even if data is being hacked or a problem occurs, the data is not availiable without a decryption key.

Twisted-Pair cables

Twisted-Pair cables are subject to crosstalk, which is occurs when a signal on one pair of wires interferes with another wire or pair of wires.

• This is usually a result of a damaged cable, which should be replaced.
