Cne Lab

Experiment 2 aimed to install and configure wired and wireless network interface cards (NICs) and transfer files between systems in a local area network (LAN) and wireless LAN. The key steps were: 1) Installing NICs by locating available slots, inserting the cards, and securing them with screws. 2) Installing the appropriate driver software for each NIC. 3) Configuring the NICs for use on a network through the computer's Control Panel. 4) Testing file transfers between systems connected by both wired and wireless LAN connections.

Experiment No: 1

Study of different types of Network cables and Practically


implement the cross-wired cable and straight through cable
using clamping tool

Aim:
To do the following
a) Cable Crimping
b) Standard Cabling
c) Cross Cabling
d)IO connector crimping
e) Testing the crimped cable using a cable tester

Apparatus/Tools/Equipments/Components:
RJ-45 connector,
IO Connector,
Crimping Tool,
Twisted pair Cable,
Cable Tester.

Principle:
Standard Cabling:
1. 10BaseT and 100BaseT are most common mode of LAN. You can use UTP
category-5 cable for
both modes.
2. A straight cable is used to connect a computer to a hub

Cross Cabling:
A cross cable is used to connect 2 computers directly (with ONLY the UTP cable).
It is also used then you
connect 2 hubs with a normal port on both hubs

Procedure:
Cable Crimping steps:
1. Remove the outmost
4. Set the RJ45 connector (with the cable) on the pliers, and squeeze it tightly.
5. Make the other side of the cable (we call this side B-side) in the same way.
6. After you made it, you don't need to take care of the direction of the cable.

IO connector crimping: Run the full length of Ethernet cable in


place, from endpoint to endpoint,
making sure to leave excess.
At one end, cut the wire to length leaving enough length to work, but not too much
excess.
Strip off about 2 inches of the Ethernet cable sheath.
Align each of the colored wires according to the layout of the jack.
Use the punch down tool to insert each wire into the jack.
Repeat the above steps for the second RJ45 jack.

Testing the crimped cable using a cable tester:

Step 1 : Skin off the cable jacket 3.0 cm long cable stripper up to cable
Step 2: Untwist each pair and straighten each wire 190 0 1.5 cm long.
Step 3 : Cut all the wires
Step 4 : Insert the wires into the RJ45 connector right white orange left brown the
pins facing up
Step 5 : Place the connector into a crimping tool, and squeeze hard so that the
handle reaches its full
swing.
Step 6: Use a cable tester to test for proper continuity
Result:

Cable Crimping, Standard Cabling and Cross Cabling, IO connector crimping and
testing the crimped
cable using a cable tester are done successfully
EXPERIMENT-2

Install and Configure Wired and Wireless NIC and transfer files
between systems in LAN
and Wireless LAN.

Aim:
To Install and Configure Wired and Wireless (remotely) NIC and transfer files
between systems in LAN
and Wireless LAN between two system in a LAN.

Principle:
NICs (Network Interface Card):Network Interface Card, or NIC is a hardware card
installed in a
computer so it can communicate on a network. The network adapter provides one or
more ports for the
network cable to connect to, and it transmits and receives data onto the network
cable.
Wireless LAN card:
Every networked computer must also have a network adapter driver, which controls
the network adapter.
Each network adapter driver is configured to run with a certain type of network
adapter.

Procedure:
(a) Install the network card:
Disconnect all cables connected to the computer and open the case. Locate an
available PCI slot (white
slots) and insert the network card and secure the card with the screw that came with
it. Once the adapter
has been installed and secured close the computer case, connect all the cables and
turn it on.

After installing the adapter driver it should be working find, now let’s configure the
card for use on a
network.

Click on the Start button and select Settings then Control Panel.
Double click on the System icon

Click on the Hardware tab
