Network wiring cable.
Computer and Network Examples
The networks are different and require a different wiring. They can connect two, three or thousands and more devices that can be located at the distance of several meters or unlimited distance.
To connect two or more network devices are used the network cables. There are more different types of the network cables: Coaxial cable, Optical fiber cable, Twisted Pair, Ethernet crossover cable, Power lines and others. They are used depending of the network topology, size, protocol.
Twisted pair cabling is a form of wiring in which pairs of the wires are twisted together to cancel out the EMI (electromagnetic interference) from other wire pairs and external sources. There are three types of the Twisted pair cables: shielded, unshielded and foil. They are used for home and corporate Ethernet networks.
In the Coaxial cables the transmission of the energy occurs through the dielectric inside the cable between the conductors. The electromagnetic wave is limited inside the cable, between the center conductor and the shield. The Coaxial cables are usually used for television.
Optical fiber cable consists of the center glass core and several layers of the protective material around. It can transmit data on the long distances, but it is expensive.
Crossover cable connects two devices of the same type. The crossing wires in a cable allow to connect directly - output of one to input of other, to connect hubs, switches, routers.

When designing a network, it is important to take into account the hierarchy of network devices. When you have a root device you should consider a tree network topology that might have any number of lower levels as you might need. This technology is based on star and bus network topologies.
This is a schematic representation of a Tree computer network topology. A tree topology means that some star networks are linked together. A star network is a topology of the local network where a central workstation is connected with each end-user computer or peripherals. A tree structure means that, the central nodes of these star networks are linked to a main cable (the Bus topology). So, a Tree network topology is a few Star networks connected into a Bus topology. This scheme can be applied to draw the particular physical or logical network diagrams using the ConceptDraw Computer and Networks solution.

If we divide computer networks by scale, we get several main categories. The smallest network is PAN, as it connects personal devices themselves, and as the number of users grows, a local area network can be recognized, and campus area networks (CAN) connects several local networks located within some area like a university or a corporation. Computers connected to CAN share public educational materials and list of CAN network examples includes such prestigious universities like Stanford and Carnegie Mellon.
This is an example of a computer network diagram created for a campus area network. It was created using using ConceptDraw solution for the Computer and Network diagramming. The specific of this sample campus network is its distribution. It is rather broad to embrace a big campus territory. This diagram can be applied as a template for designing custom area network topology diagram for a particular educational institution.

A Storage area network (SAN) is a dedicated network that provides access to data storage and operations only on the block level. SAN usually has own network of storage devices/elements and disk arrays that are connected with each other and to a remote data-sharing network. SANs are widely used for enhancing the storage devices (optical jukeboxes, disk arrays, tape libraries) that are accessible for networked servers.
This example was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the Computer and Networks Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park. It shows the hybrid of Storage area network (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) technologies.
