<\/a>Computer Network<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A computer network are two or more computers that are connected with one another for the purpose of communicating data electronically. Computers use network interfaces connected to hubs, switches, routers, and modems. The interfaces are connected to these ‘hubs’ either using wired or using wireless technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n

The display has connected a number of network interfaces with hubs, routers and modems from different eras. It’s a ‘fun’ display and is not functional in any way. In theory you could hook-up coaxial 10 Mbit cable with, 100 Mbit ethernet and then with Gigabit Fibre!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
