Book Description
In this text, you will learn basic telecommunications terms and concepts related to various types of networks and the Internet. We will cover commonly used network standards, protocols, topologies, and architectures. Hands-on activities will explore network traffic packet analysis, error control, subnetting, wireless/wired network design, and newer technologies such as Bluetooth and 5G. We will explore these with a lens on reliability, efficiency, and security.
There are no prerequisites for this text. The labs associated with this text will use Wireshark and Cisco Packet Tracer; therefore, a basic familiarity with technology and software is beneficial. However, instructions to install and use these programs will be part of the relevant labs.
Telecommunications and Networking was made possible through a Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board State Funded OER Grant.
