Data Networks

Lecturer:

Pavel Bezpalec (gar.)

Tutor:

Pavel Bezpalec (gar.), Ján Kučerák

Supervisor:

Department of Telecommunications Engineering

Synopsis:

The subject deals with current technologies that are used in data communication networks. The main consideration is devoted to that networks and technologies being used in WAN. The subject also allows students for a better understanding of function of networks such as X.25, ATM and Frame relay. The key functional principles of label switching network technology MPLS used in WAN will be explained.
