IEEE 802.11g

What is IEEE 802.11g?

802.11g is the third modulation standard for wireless LAN. It works in the 2.4 GHz band (like 802.11b) but operates at a maximum raw data rate of 54 Mbit/s. Using the CSMA/CA transmission scheme, 31.4 Mbit/s is the maximum net throughput possible for packets of 1500 bytes in size and a 54 Mbit/s wireless rate (identical to 802.11a core, except for some additional legacy overhead for backward compatibility).

In practice, access points may not have an ideal implementation and may therefore not be able to achieve even 31.4 Mbit/s throughput with 1500 byte packets. 1500 bytes is the usual limit for packets on the Internet and therefore a relevant size to benchmark against. Therefore smaller packets give even lower theoretical throughput, down to 3 Mbit/s using 54 Mbit/s rate and 64 byte packets. Also, the available throughput is shared between all stations transmitting, including the AP. Both downstream and upstream traffic limited to shared total of 31.4 Mbit/s using 1500 byte packets and 54 Mbit/s rate.

IEEE 802.11g-2003 or 802.11g is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 specification that operates in the 2.4 GHz microwave band. Standard has extended throughput up to 54 Mbit/s using the same 20MHz bandwidth as 802.11b uses to achieve 11 Mbit/s. This specification under the marketing name of Wi-Fi has been implement all over the world. The 802.11g protocol is now Clause 19 of the published IEEE 802.11-2007 standard, and Clause 19 of the published IEEE 802.11-2012 standard.

802.11 is a set of IEEE standards that govern wireless networking transmission methods. They are commonly use today in their 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.11ac and 802.11ax versions to provide wireless connectivity in the home, office and some commercial establishments. Wi-Fi G is an unofficial retronym for 802.11g. 802.11g is fully backwards compatible with 802.11b.

Printer

What is Printer? Another widely used output device is a printer and it is a computer peripheral device. A printer produces a hard copy of a processed text or a result. A hard copy refers to a permanent human-readable text or graphics taken on physical print media such as paper or transparency. A printer will use toner to provide a quality print on paper, a toner is a replaceable material. Once the toner gets empty we can refill it and reuse it.  Most of the printers are used for commercial purposes such as private offices, industries, government offices, photo studios, etc,. Most of the printers are used to print emails, documents, files, images, color photos, color documents, color posts, banners, advertisement posters, etc,. There are the following 5 types of printers such as dot matrix printer, inkjet printer, laser printer, dye-sublimation printer, and plotter printer this are all the printer which uses nowadays for a printing purpose. A printer is characterized by the followin...

Dot Matrix Printer

What is Dot Matrix Printer? A dot matrix printer or impact matrix printer refers to a type of computer printers with a print head that contains a cluster of pins. The pins run back and front on the page and print by impact with striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against a paper similar to a typewriter. The Dot-matrix printers can print at a speed of 500 cps. Therefore a low-resolution dot matrix printers use 9 pins and a high-resolution dot matrix printer uses 24 pins. Then the low-resolution dot matrix is use to apply ink on the surface for layout.  In this a printer is able to print different patterns but not only the specific characters. Then a Dot-matrix printers are work as a non-impact method such as laser printers or inkjet printers where they also use the same process for printing. In this each dots produce by a wire or pin which is a tiny metal rod. The tiny electromagnet give the power to move forward directly small levers and a ribbon mask holder which facing the papers...

Blade Server

What is Blade Server? A blade server is a compact, high density, self-contained server that chassis housing multiple thin, modular electronic circuit boards, known as server blades. It is used in the datacenters to save space, minimize power consumption, reduce cooling expenses, redundancy, reduce cabling, increase storage capacity, and reduce energy cost. Each blade is a server in its own right, often dedicate to a single application. It consists of hot-plug hard drives, memory, input/output cards, and network cards. With enterprise-class blade servers, storage is external, and blades are diskless. A blade servers is used for hosting virtual platforms, file sharing, SSL encryption of web communication, streaming audio and video content, database hosting, and application hosting. Blade Server Benefits of Blade Servers The following benefits of blade servers are Minimize Power Consumption Storage Capacity is High Less needs for Cables High Space Saving Scalable Architecture Diskless or ...
