What Is Lan Media?? ,?
LAN media define how you access the network physically. Three common LAN media are * Copper UTP cables (commonly referred to as Ethernet patch cables), it’s the cheapest way of connecting a device to the LAN. Very commonly used for normal connections up to 1 GBit/s. * Optical Fiber, rather expensive but allows for very high bandwiths. Thus, it’s usually used as backbone cabling rather than normal connections between devices. * Wiress LAN, which uses radio waves transmitted through the air. Slower than wired LAN but allows for greater mobility of the hosts. Security may be a bit shaky, thus it’s usually not used in security sensitive environments.
