Operational Characteristics? Load of rubbish!

More homework?

Peter you've probably not been told but for a homework question you're supposed to have a go at the problem then get the pointers mate. I know that might sound harsh but trust me, you'll learn more

 

[PeterPan27]

Agreed trev. just these just ones i cant find any info on etc.. its just the operational characteristics , to be perfectly honest i dont really know what this means?

I have spent ages looking on net in all books , just cant come up with info

I think you're getting hung up on the wording mate, operational characteristics to me means how do they work/what do they need to work/what do they do/how are you going to make the things do what you want. Try breaking it down into those kind of headings. Once again, the number of points available is really relevant, for example if 3 marks are available they'll want short sharp bullet points, if twenty points are on offer they want detail.

Its not really marked like that, just a pass or fail.

the 3 of these were in one question, agree the wording is rubbish

Ethernet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
thats a global standard for data networks.
for fire and security you will have to be more specific what information you need.

 

[PeterPan27]

Basically what's a fire alarm and security system what do you need for them to work.. What cables are used how are they fitted in domestic situation

[PeterPan27]

Data distribution is done with ethernet cat 5 cables

Fire alarm in FP200

Sercurity normal 1.5 twin and earth

Fire alram should have its on segregation as should be wired alone??

 

[PeterPan27]
