DELORENZO DL TC74 Local Area Network LAN and Intranet

Product Information

The product is a training package for engineers focused on the installation and maintenance of Local Area Networks (LANs) and Intranets. The package covers various topics such as local network components, transmission media, network protocols, Ethernet standards, network devices, structured wiring standards, network protocols (NetBIOS, NetBEUI, TCP/IP, IPX/SPX), Intranet concepts and diagnostics, architecture of Peer-to-Peer and network Server Operating Systems.

The package includes the following components

• TC74-MC: LAN structured cabling module
• TC74-DS: Switching HUB (Quantity 3)
• TC74-DM: Media Converter (Quantity 2)

TC74-MC: LAN structured cabling

This module demonstrates the structure of LAN cabling according to the EIA/TIA 568A and ISO/IEC 11801 standards. It includes a diagram of the structured cabling, RJ45 and optical fiber sockets, and a patch panel for users’ sockets.

TC74-DS: Switching HUB

These HUBs are IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u compatible with a transmission speed of 10/100 Mb/s. Each HUB has 4 RJ45 ports and requires an external power supply.

TC74-DM: Media Converter

The Media Converters convert from RJ45 (10Base-T) to optical fiber (10Base- FL). They have 1 RJ45 and 1 ST (RX/TX) connection. They are compatible with cat. 3, 4, 5, and optical fiber cable 62.5/125 ST. They are also IEEE 802.3 compatible.
