Crossover vs Patch Cables - Find Out the Difference Between These Two Ethernet Cables

If you are trying to setup a local network or LAN at home then you probably already know you need an ethernet cable and maybe even a hub or a switch. If things were that easy it would be great, but matters are only made more difficult when you discover that there are different kinds of ethernet cables. Do you get a patch cable or a crossover cable? What's the difference between the two? The problem is that both of these cables look identical, and unless you specifically ask for help there is a good chance that the sales person will assume you know which one you need and say nothing at all. It is not until later when you get home that you find out you've purchased the wrong cable as they are not interchangeable. Here is a quick guide to help clarify the difference between patch and crossover cables.

For most of the time the kind of cable you will need is called a patch cable. Patch cables are the most widely used and generic form of ethernet cable available today. Put simply they are referred to as straight though cables. What this means is that wire 1 on one end of the cable comes out as wire 2 on the other end. The wires run straight through and do not swap or change along the way. This kind of cable is used for connecting computers to hubs, switches or routers. If you are setting up an ordinary LAN or just connecting your computer to a router, then this is the type of cable you'll need. It simply transfer data along specified wires and does nothing beyond this. Crossover cables, as you may already guessed from the name, actually do something to the wires along the way.

Crossover cables actually crossover. Meaning that wire 1 on one end does not come out as wire 1 on the other end. The wires are crossed over and this is why if you try to use this kind of cable in the previous setup, nothing will work. The data along the way changes wires and it means that the router or hub you are trying to connect your computer to has no way of understanding the information that it is receiving. So when would you need a crossover cable? These cables are used for connecting two computers together directly or connecting two hubs or switches together directly. This is done so that the wires are swapped over to match the correct pins on the receiving end. If you've ever looked at a hub or switch, you may have noticed a port called an uplink port. This uplink port functions exactly how a crossover cable does. You can use this uplink port to connect two switches together with a patch cable because the uplink port actually crosses over the wires internally and makes it possible to receive data directly from another switch.

While patch and crossover cables may look the same, they are used for two very different situations. Connecting networks or computers together directly will require a crossover cable. However, if you are connecting computers to a swithc, hub or router then a patch cable is what you'll need.

Formative Assessment and Science Education $150.8 Formative Assessment and Science Education documents the findings of a research project which investigated the ways in which teachers and students used formative assessment to improve the teaching and learning of science in some New Zealand classrooms. The research documented in this book used the definition of formative assessment as the process used by teachers and students to recognise and respond to students' learning, in order to enhance that learning, during the learning'. The book contains one detailed case study from the research, as well as cameos of instances of formative assessment. The book also contains two summaries of the research findings - a model developed to describe the process of formative assessment used by the teachers and students involved in the research, and a summary of the characteristics of formative assessment. The findings are also theorised with respect to sociocultural and discursive views of learning. This research will be of interest to graduate students and researchers, as well as teacher educators, curriculum developers, and assessment specialists.

This book: Offers specific examples of the formative assessment process in action in a range of subject areasAddresses the place of formative assessment within the broader assessment pictureDiscusses and gives examples of effective feedback as an essential part of formative assessment Shows how to engage students in self-assessment and self-management so they can participate in keeping their learning on courseExamines how school leaders can support classroom implementation of formative assessment

Formative Assessment and All That Jazz $146.58 The findings of this research essentially indicate that formative assessment strategies, when engaged regularly and properly, are effective in informing teaching practice. Furthermore, the findings suggest that teachers who regularly collaborate about their practice are more effective and more likely to attempt new formative assessment strategies in their practice. This collaboration, within a supportive professional learning community, affords the practice of a more guaranteed and viable curricular experience for students as well as reflective and improved pedagogy among the teachers engaged in the study. Similar to the practice of jazz musicians who collaborate in an environment where mentoring of younger musicians helps to nurture improvisational skills, we attempted to use collaboration as a vehicle to nurture our practice of formative assessment and our pedagogy as teachers.

Embedded Formative Assessment (Paperback) $39.87 Embedded Formative Assessment If we are to maintain our status as one of the world`s leading economies and secure our economic futures, and if we want our students to thrive in the impossibly complex, unpredictable world of the 21st century, we must concentrate on increasing educational achievement by increasing the quality of the teachers in our schools. The author faces this challenge head-on by making a case for the important role of formative assessment in increasing teacher quality and student learning.Formative assessment plays an important role in increasing teacher quality and student learning when it`s viewed as a process rather than a tool. Emphasizing the instructional side of formative assessment, this book explores in-depth the use of classroom questioning, learning intentions and success criteria, feedback, collaborative and cooperative learning, and self-regulated learning to engineer effective learning environments for students.Benefits Presents five key strategies with research evidence to show the impact of each Includes over 50 practical techniques for classroom formative assessment
