The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) The Electronics Industry Alliance/Telecommunications Industry Association (EIA/TIA) National telecommunications authorities such as the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) in the USA. The technologies defined by Physical and electrical properties of the media these organizations include Mechanical properties (materials, dimensions, what four areas of the pinouts) of the connectors Physical layer standards? Bit representation by the signals (encoding) Definition of control information signals What are the three The physical components fundamental functions of the Data encoding Physical layer? Signaling What are the two values 1 and 0 that the physical layer encodes? How are the bits of the One bit at a time frame transmitted by the physical layer?

What is a bit time? How are the signaling and receiving ends clocks synchronized in the LAN? What characteristics can be changed to represent bits on the medium? What will happen if there is no agreement between nodes on the signaling method? What are the three characteristics of NRZ signaling? What type of transmission is NRZ suited for? What are represented by in Manchester encoding? How does the transition help maintain clock synchronization? Which medium uses Manchester encoding? What method is used to signal start and end of a frame in higher speed technologies? What is a code group? What are the advantages of transmitting symbols? What are the four advantages of using code groups?

specific amount of time each signal has to occupy the media Many signaling methods use predictable transitions in the signal to provide synchronization between the clocks of the transmitting and the receiving devices Amplitude Frequency Phase The transmission will fail

8.2.2. 2

What are the three types of code groups?

consecutive sequence of code bits that are interpreted and mapped as data bit patterns the error detection capabilities and timing synchronization between transmitting and receiving devices are enhanced Reducing bit level error Limiting the effective energy transmitted into the media Helping to distinguish data bits from control bits Better media error detection Data symbols - Symbols that represent the data of the frame as it is passed down to the Physical layer. Control symbols - Special codes injected by the Physical layer used to control transmission. These include end-of-frame and idle media symbols. Invalid symbols - Symbols that have patterns not allowed on the media. The receipt of an invalid symbol indicates a frame error.
