Networking Technology

Networking technology refers to the collection of tools, methods, and hardware used to connect computers and devices to share resources and communicate over networks. This includes the infrastructure, such as routers, switches, and cables, that enable data transmission, as well as the protocols and standards that govern how data is formatted and transmitted. Networking technology encompasses both wired and wireless communication methods, supporting local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), and the broader internet. Its primary functions include data exchange, resource sharing, and enabling communications, thereby facilitating various applications such as internet browsing, streaming, and cloud computing.
