Cables made of 2 stranded copper wire rods are used. Communication speed is 10Mbps with 10Base-T, 100Mbps with 100Base-TX, and 1000Mbps with 1000Base-T. Software or its file format developed by Adobe Systems Inc. (formerly by Macromedia, Inc.), used to create a content by compiling vector-graphic animations and sounds. The software allows handling interactive contents using keyboard or mouse. The files can be kept relatively compact and accessed from a Web browser with dedicated plug-in software. The generic name for the protocol suite developed by Apple Computer for computer networking. The abbreviation for binary digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A bit uses only a 0 or a 1 to indicate data. The abbreviation for bitmap. This is a file format for saving image data. (Extension: ".bmp") Commonly used on Windows platforms. BMP covers the color depth from monochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). BMP images are not suitable for compressed storage. A Macintosh network technology, automatically detecting a device connected to the network for automatic configuration. Previously called "Rendezvous", and has been changed to "Bonjour" since Mac OS X v10.4. The abbreviation for Bootstrap Protocol. The protocol is used for a client computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from a server. Instead of BOOTP, DHCP, an advanced protocol based on BOOTP, is typically used today. Brightness of a display or other screen. A byte indicates a unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A byte consists of eight bits. A computer using services provided by servers via the network. A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access computers on different LANs. The acronym for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The protocol is used for a client computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from a server. Just using a DHCP server to centrally manage IP addresses of the DHCP clients enables you to construct a network without IP address conflicts or other troubles. Abbreviation of Domain Name Systems. DNS allows for obtaining the IP address corresponding to a host name in network environments. This system enables a user to access other computers on the network by specifying host names instead of elusive and non-intuitive IP addresses. Abbreviation of Dots Per Inch. Unit of resolution used with printers, scanners, etc. This indicates the number of dots used to represent an inch. The higher this value, the higher the resolution. Software to act intermediately between the computer and peripheral devices. Standard for the LAN transmission line. A type of communication format used in NetWare environments. For mutual communication, the same frame type is required. Abbreviation of File Transfer Protocol. A protocol used to transfer files on the TCP/IP network such as Internet, Intranet, etc. Hardware or software serving as a point connecting networks. Not only connecting, it converts the format, address, protocol, etc. of the data according to the network to be connected. A form of presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information shifting from black to white. Mass storage device to save data.
