Document Summary

Analogy: devices are like people at a dinner party everyone speaking stop and wait for other people to speak. Very specific protocol in place in order for the conversation to happen. If one device/cable is slower, it can slow the entire communication chain. Only 2 devices can happen unlike ethernet with multiple devices. Designed for download speed much higher than upload speed. Many of us use a cable modem to connect to the internet. Difference between cable modem and the rest is it communicates over frequencies designed to transmit television signals instead of voice. Conclusion: the above devices are all designed to communicate from one point- one computer to another one such as a head office e. g. rogers. Most common form of electromagnet radiation is visible light. The electromagnetic spectrum is way wider than the colours we see. Red light transmits at a lower frequency than blue light and we interpret it as colours.
