Question 9

Determine the maximum length of the cable (in km) for transmitting data at a rate of 500 Mbps in an Ethernet LAN with frames of size 10,000 bits. Assume the signal speed in the cable to be 2,00,000 km/s.

A

B
2
C
2.5
D
5
Question 9 Explanation: 
500×106 bits —— 1 sec
∴104 bits —–5×108/104 = 104/5×108sec = 1/5×104sec
1 sec——2×105 km
1/5×104—–2×105/5×104 = 4 km
Maximum length of cable = 4/2 = 2 km
Correct Answer: B
