Devices Used in Computer Networks | Softlogic Systems Chennai

Computer networks are responsible for the effective communication and data exchange between devices around the globe. Even communication exists between computers and satellites which are circling out the earth. This blog covers the basic devices that are used in the network Routers - Routers are the most widely used networking devices which transmits the data around the world. Routers are responsible for finding the right path among the multiple routes in the network. Switch - Switch is also used for transmitting and receiving data across the network. The major difference between routers and switches is that the switch will not find the network path. It just transmits the data across the network and the relevant receiver identifies the data and receives it. Switches are very quick in transmitting the data when compared to routers. Switches are also known for less expensive than the routers. Learn Networking - Softlogic Systems Chennai Complete network professional t...

Hubs/Switches/Routers | Softlogic Systems Chennai

In networking, two or more computers need to be connected with one another for sending and receiving data. Hubs, switches and routers are three major networking devices that are widely used for connecting computers with one another. Let’s see the features of each device with an explanation Hub It is known for its simple and less expensive features. Hubs are used for simply passing the data along the network. It is a fast and easier way to connect systems in a small network. Data sent from one port is transmitted to all the other ports. Switches Its tasks are similar to that Hubs but the difference is that the switches are more efficient in passing data to other port. Unlike hubs, switches can recognize the address of each node connected on the network. So switches can transmit data to the particular computer among all the other computers connected on the network. It uses the MAC address of the individual system. Routers Routers are relatively...
