Factors Influencing Network Performance

What is network performance primarily concerned with?

• The number of devices on the network

• Response time

• The type of network traffic

• The number of transmission errors

Which transmission medium typically has the highest bandwidth?

• Twisted copper wire

• Fibre-optic cable

• Home Wi-Fi

• Business Wi-Fi

How much bandwidth is typically available for a home Wi-Fi network?

• Up to 10 gigabits per second

• Up to 100 gigabits per second

• Up to 600 megabits per second

• Up to 6 gigabits per second

What happens to the bandwidth allocated to each device when more devices are connected to a network?

• It increases

• It remains the same

• It decreases

• It doubles

Which type of network traffic requires more bandwidth?

• Low definition video streaming

• High definition video streaming

• Text messaging

• Email

What is network latency?

• The number of devices on a network

• The amount of data a network can transfer

• The time it takes for a message to travel across a network

• The number of transmission errors

Which type of network typically experiences higher latency?

• Switch-based network

• Hub-based network

• Fibre-optic network

• Wi-Fi network

What is a collision in a network context?

• When a device disconnects from the network

• When two devices communicate simultaneously along the same channel

• When a network switch fails

• When a message is delayed

Which transmission medium is generally used to connect guest devices to a network?

• Fibre-optic cable

• Twisted copper wire

• Wi-Fi

• Ethernet cable

What is the typical bandwidth of twisted copper wire?

• Up to 10 gigabits per second

• Up to 100 gigabits per second

• Up to 600 megabits per second

• Up to 6 gigabits per second
