PPP Overview: The Point-to-Point Protocol Explained
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a WAN encapsulation protocol developed in the early 1990s as a successor to the older Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP). It’s an open standard, meaning the protocol can be used consistently across equipment from different vendors — a significant advantage over proprietary alternatives. PPP can run over a remarkably wide range...
Serial Cable: Types, Pinouts, and DTE/DCE Connections
A serial cable is used to interconnect DTEs (Data Terminal Equipment) and DCEs (Data Communications Equipment). DTEs are the devices that actually generate or receive the data being communicated, such as a computer, router, or terminal. DCEs are the devices that facilitate and relay that data across the connection, such as a modem or CSU/DSU....
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM): Complete Guide
Multiplexing is a technique that allows multiple logical signals to share a single physical channel. The two most fundamental multiplexing techniques in telecommunications and networking are Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and its dynamic counterpart, Statistical Time Division Multiplexing (STDM). This guide focuses on TDM, its frame structure, real-world implementations in T1 and E1 circuits, Cisco...
Point-to-Point Communication Links: A Complete Guide
A point-to-point link is used when a permanent, dedicated connection is required between two locations. It’s a pre-established WAN communications path that securely connects two or more locations for private data services, without sharing that specific physical or logical path with other customers’ traffic. Point-to-point links are also commonly known by other names in the...
Serial Communication: RS-232, V.35, and HSSI Explained
Serial communication is a widely used technique for transferring data between processing equipment and various peripherals, and it’s also commonly used to transfer data across WAN links. In a WAN context, the sending router encapsulates data using a communication protocol, sends the encapsulated data across the physical medium, and the receiving router de-encapsulates it on...
Serial Port: How Serial Interfaces Work in Networking
A serial port allows a PC or network device to transmit or receive data one bit at a time over a single channel. Serial interfaces are the foundation of point-to-point WAN connections — the leased line links that connect remote sites across cities and countries. While USB has replaced serial ports on most PCs, serial...
VPN Technology: How Virtual Private Networks Work
VPN is the abbreviation for Virtual Private Network. VPN technology creates a safe, encrypted connection over an unsecured network, such as the Internet. It effectively extends a private network across a public network, letting remote users and offices communicate as if they were directly connected to the same private infrastructure. A virtual private network uses...
Cellular Network: How Cellular WAN Technology Works
Cellular networks are a type of wireless WAN technology. They provide connectivity to users and remote locations where no other WAN access technologies are available. Millions of users rely on cellular networks daily to email, browse the web, download apps, stream video, and make voice calls from smartphones, tablets, laptops, and even routers equipped with...
Cable Internet: How It Works, Speeds, and Architecture
Network and Internet access through cable TV is a type of broadband Internet access that uses the existing infrastructure of the television cable system. It provides network edge connectivity from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to an end user in much the same way DSL and Fiber to the Home (FTTH) do, but riding on...
