Client-Server Network


                  It is a network in which one computer is designated as the server and all the other computers
                  connected on the network are called the clients. The clients can request for the services
                  from the server. This is called the client-server network.

          26       Wireless Networking Technology

                  In a wireless networking technology, no wires or physical media is used for connecting

                  computers. It uses electromagnetic waves like infrared, microwave and radio waves for
                  transmission of the data. There are two types of wireless technologies named Wi-Fi and
                  Bluetooth.


                   Wi-Fi

                  Wi–Fi is the most popular wireless communication technology

                  used for homes, private business LANs and public hotspots. A
                  Wi-Fi-enabled device such as a PC, video game console, mobile
                  phones  or MP3  player  can  connect to  the  Internet when  it

                  comes within the range of a wireless network. Wi-Fi allows us
                  to deploy local area networks without wires thus reduces the
                  cost of the network expansion.                                                      Wi-Fi


                                                           Bluetooth

                                                         Bluetooth  is  a  technology  that  enables  wireless
                                                         communication between low-power consumption devices

                                                         within a short range (1 meter, 10 meters, and 100 meters).
                                                         It facilitates communication between different devices

                                                         when  they  are  within a  required  range. The  latest
                                                         version of Bluetooth, Bluetooth 5.4 technology provides
                               Bluetooth                 data transfer speed up to 2 Mbps.
