how do network cables transmit data from thousands of people without interference? Like a phone cable for 5 houses not mixing up calls?
In: Technology
Long story short, each device has an unique number assigned to it and each communication is made using those numbers. Think of it as a a mailman, he has the exact address and gets you your mail. That s how packets work.
For the not mixing part, the switch router theoretically is a small computer as it has it s own memory processing power. Each router stores your exact address 🙂 or a way to get to your address. Hope this helps
