Network equipment and cabling layout - Template

"In computer networks, networked computing devices pass data to each other along data connections. The connections (network links) between nodes are established using either cable media or wireless media. ...
Network computer devices that originate, route and terminate the data are called network nodes. Nodes can include hosts such as personal computers, phones, servers as well as networking hardware. ...
Network links.
The communication media used to link devices to form a computer network include electrical cable (HomePNA, power line communication, G.hn), optical fiber (fiber-optic communication), and radio waves (wireless networking). In the OSI model, these are defined at layers 1 and 2 - the physical layer and the data link layer.
A widely adopted family of communication media used in local area network (LAN) technology is collectively known as Ethernet. The media and protocol standards that enable communication between networked devices over Ethernet are defined by IEEE 802.3. Ethernet transmit data over both copper and fiber cables. Wireless LAN standards (e.g. those defined by IEEE 802.11) use radio waves, or others use infrared signals as a transmission medium. Power line communication uses a building's power cabling to transmit data. ...
Network nodes.
Apart from the physical communications media described above, networks comprise additional basic system building blocks, such as network interface controller (NICs), repeaters, hubs, bridges, switches, routers, modems, and firewalls." [Computer network. Wikipedia]
The network equipment and cabling layout floorplan template for the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software is included in the Network Layout Floor Plans solution from the Computer and Networks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

The vector stencils library "Telecom equipment" contains 11 hardware clipart icons of telecommunication devices for drawing computer network diagrams and equipment layouts.
"In telecommunication, a communications system is a collection of individual communications networks, transmission systems, relay stations, tributary stations, and data terminal equipment (DTE) usually capable of interconnection and interoperation to form an integrated whole. The components of a communications system serve a common purpose, are technically compatible, use common procedures, respond to controls, and operate in union. Telecommunications is a method of communication." [Communications system. Wikipedia]
"A basic telecommunication system consists of three primary units that are always present in some form: (1) A transmitter that takes information and converts it to a signal. (2) A transmission medium, also called the "physical channel" that carries the signal. ... (3) A receiver that takes the signal from the channel and converts it back into usable information."
