Abstract
This is the course outline for Capital Community College’s Data and Communications Networking II. This intermediate-level course provides students with extensive on-hands experience with LAN-related devices and media and continues where Data Communications & Networking I leaves off. The student progresses beyond the basics of communications networks and network configurations and gets into the study of actual networks and network hardware and software. Hands-on experience is obtained as each student networks two PC systems both in and across LANs. With this foundation knowledge, the student will be well prepared for the Cisco CCENT certification. Course topics include: LAN Network Fundamentals; Physical Layer Cabling; Interconnected LANs; Networking Math; Routers and Routing Protocols; and Basic Network Security.
