1 Wired Communication

The transmission of
information over a
distance with help of
wires, cables or any
other forms of
electrical conductors.
 Type Of Wired Communication

Twisted Coaxial Fiber Optic

Pair Cable Cable Cable
 Less expensive
Transmission
capacity can Higher
be increased security level

Advantages Of
Wired Communication
Greater Interference
capability in and crosstalk
transmitting from either user
data do not happen
 DISadvantage Of Wired
Communication
+ Less freedom
+ More time used for installation of cable
+ Can be affected by noise of machinery or
magnetic.

 Advantages Of Wireless
Communication
+ Faster and high speed for data transmission
+ Maintenance and installation is easy and requires
less time
+ More area is covered by wireless base stations
+ It is very helpful for workers, doctors working in
remote areas as they can be in touch with
medical centers
 DISadvantages Of Wireless
Communication
+ Easily to be hacked and will hamper privacy
+ Require careful RF planning at the beginning of of
installation
+ Subject to interference
