Data Communications and Networking 4th Edition by Forouzan

Data Communications and Networking 4th Edition by Behrouz A. Forouzan





Data Communications And Networking by Behrouz Forouzan provides a thorough introduction to the concepts that underlie networking technology. This book is accessible to students without technical backgrounds, and also provides material comprehensive enough to challenge the more experienced student.

The seven-layer OSI model is used as a framework to provide the background
necessary for explaining networking theory and showing interlying
dependencies. The second edition of Forouzan's DATA COMMUNICATIONS AND
NETWORKING includes new exercises and some more challenging ones. In
addition, he has increased coverage of some new topics in networking such
as some of the new encoding systems, fast Ethernet, 100VganyLan, ADSL and
DSL. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
