Transmitting Bits
  1. Sending Bits
    1. Move bits using copper wires and electricity
      1. Different voltages & frequencies are sent to mean 0 or a 1
        1. Graphs are used to show how bits are sent
        2. Radio Waves
          1. Can be changed over time to send data
            1. Waves are sent upward to bounce off the ionsphere
              1. The ionsphere is one of the layers of Earth's atmosphere
              2. Towers send electricity through antennas to create radio waves
              3. Ethernet LANs
                1. Cables are straight-through to the pinouts so there won't be any problems with traffic
                  1. Engineers ignore the encoding and think more about the speed
                    1. Unshielded twisted-pair cables help prevent from electromagnetic interferences
                    2. Fiber-Optic Cables
                      1. Support longer cabling distances than copper cables
                        1. Make it easier for light to flow through to send a 1 or a 0
                          1. They don't create EMI effects
