Computer A is sending a 100 kByte long file to Computer B via packet-switching over two consecutive 10 Mbps links of 1000 km length each. Assume that the signal propagation speed on both links is 2.5 x 108 m/s
Computer A is sending a 100 kByte long file to Computer B via packet-switching over two consecutive 10 Mbps links of 1000 km length each.
Assume that the signal propagation speed on both links is 2.5 x 108 m/s.
Furthermore, assume that the maximum length of a packet is 1500 bytes and that Computer A fills each packet to the max, if possible.
How "long" (in meters) is one bit on link 1?
Computer networking which refers to interconnected computing devices that can exchange data and share resources with each other through the transmission medium. These networked devices use a system of rules, called communications protocols, to transmit information over physical or wireless technologies. It is the set of the computers are connected.
