SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concepts of Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) and Switched Multimegabit Data Services (SMDS) within the context of Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN). DQDB facilitates data transmission through a dual bus architecture that allows multiple users to access the network efficiently, while SMDS provides a high-speed data service that supports various applications over MAN. Understanding these technologies is crucial for optimizing network performance in urban environments.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN)
  • Familiarity with Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) architecture
  • Knowledge of Switched Multimegabit Data Services (SMDS)
  • Basic concepts of data transmission protocols
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the technical specifications of DQDB and its operational mechanisms
  • Explore the applications and benefits of SMDS in urban networking
  • Study the differences between DQDB and other data transmission methods
  • Investigate case studies of MAN implementations using DQDB and SMDS
USEFUL FOR

Network engineers, telecommunications professionals, and IT specialists involved in designing and implementing Metropolitan Area Networks.

This is a question from my lecturer,i really cannot answer it because i dun understand about DQDB and SMDS,so wish anyone expert can tell me about it or give me some information for it.It is not much website can be found the information.If u know some website about this,please let me know,i will research it.Thank you all...

The question is:

A metropolitan areal network(MAN) is a network designed to extend over an entire city.Most organizations find that even if they could get permits to lay cables on public land,a better alternative is to use the services of existing utilities,such as Telephone Company.These services include:distributed queue dual bus(DQDB) and switched multimegabit data services(SMDS).Explain how the data transmission in DQDB is done and how SMDS is used for MAN.

Thanks a lot for help me.
