CONNECTIVITY

The function of these cables is to connect to computers and resources with the maximum efficiency and speed. Also, they allow us to connect different devices together and transfer data between them as well.
There are three types of cabling:

COAXIAL:

Image result for coaxial cableThe maximun length of a segment is 200m, and it can transfer data up to 100mb.

ETHERNET:

Image result for ETHERNETthere are different types of Ethernet cables:
Unshielded: they are cheaper and not as fast as the shielded cables
Shielded: They have a higher production cost and they take longer to produce, however, they are faster and more effective as they don't experience phase distortion.
the Ethernet maximum distance rate without amplifying is 100m.

FIBRE OPTIC

Image result for FIBRE OPTICThey are the fastest cables nowadays, they can transfer data up to 100gb, and they can go over for 2km without amplifying. Also, they don't face interference. Therefore, they are really expensive.

MEMORY A memory is a temporary storage that computers uses to hold data and instructions. One of the most important storage devices is random access memory(RAM), that is  the  fastest way in which data can get to the processor.  Random access memory (RAM) is the temporary storage for data and programs that are being  accessed by the CPU. Non volatile / volatile A volatile memory, lose its data when the computer is  powered off. On  the other hand,  a Non Volatile memory that does not lose its data when switched off. Different types: RAM :  Is one of the most important storage devices,  is a volatile memory, that stores data and programs that are being accessed by the CPU. RAM is a volatile memory. ROM: Read-only memory (ROM)  contains basic instructions for booting the computer and loading the operating system.  ROM, on  the other hand,  is a Non Volatile memory CAC...
THE PROCESSOR The function of the processor The processor is a chip that controls all the computer instructions by interpreting them as  a binary code.  The control circuitry pulls data in via the various  ports, directs it along data buses,stores it in  the memories and performs the calculations Its roles Performing calculations: the calculations are made by components in the cpu using binary code. Data manipulation: The cpu can receive data from input devices, store the instructions and send data back to output devices Decision making Performance features Clock speed: Is the speed at which the microprocessor executes instructions  Cores: It is the processing unit.   For example, having two cores, multiply the processing power of the cpu by two.   Cache  Is a small and fast memory, situated close to the cpu to accelerate the processor performance by storing copies of the most fre...
