A device that propagates signals between cables; in case of computer networks it operates at the first, physical layer within the ISO/OSI model, and does not do packet filtering or makes routing decisions cf hub, bridge, router
A device that propagates electrical signals from one cable to another without making routing decisions or providing packet filtering In OSI terminology, a repeater is a Physical Layer intermediate system See bridge, intermediate system and router
Receives radio signals from the base station They are then amplified and re-transmitted to areas where radio shadow occurs Repeats also work in the opposite direction, i e receiving radio signals from mobile telephones, then amplifying and re-transmitting them to the base station
A repeater is a device that is added to a network to extend the signal on the cable As a signal travels the length of the cable, it tends to loose strength or attenuate A repeater compensates for this attenuation, reconstructs the signal and transmits it to the network A hub functions as a multi-port repeater which it does by repeating the signal on all ports within the collision domain (Ref : Reeves, Network+)
A network device that repeats signals from one cable onto one or more other cables, while restoring signal timing and waveforms Repeaters are the most common way to connect local networks together, and can provide either Thinwire or Thickwire connections They are commonly used to create larger local networks up to a certain limit based on the number of repeaters and the length of the cables
A device that amplifies or augments incoming electrical signals and re?transmits them towards the earth station(s) at a different frequency In the satellite context, the term "repeater" usually refers to all Payload equipment, with the exception of the satellite antennas
Devices that receive a radio signal, amplify it and re-transmit it in a new direction Used in wireless networks to extend the range of base station signals, thereby expanding coverage-within limits-more economically than by building additional base stations Repeaters typically are used for buildings, tunnels or difficult terrain (Back to top )
(electronics) electronic device that amplifies a signal before transmitting it again; "repeaters can be used in computer networks to extend cabling distances"
A device that receives, amplifies (and sometimes reshapes), and retransmits a signal It is used to boost signal levels and extend the distance a signal can be transmitted It can physically extend the distance of a LAN or connect two LAN segments
A device inserted at intervals along a circuit to boost, and amplify an analog signal being transmitted A repeater is sometimes needed because the quality and strength of a signal decays over distance Repeaters are also used to regenerate a digital signal - "squaring it" and "cleaning it up" - but not changing it You can regenerate digital signals because technology exists that can separate the actual signal from the noise, regenerating only the signal No technology exists that can do this with analog signals The simplest type of LAN interconnection device is a repeater A repeater moves all received packets or frames between LAN segments The primary function of a repeater is to extend the length of the network media, i e the cable
A base station set up to extend the range of mobile communication by "repeating" everything it hears on its receiver frequency over its transmit frequency For an in-building wireless system, a repeater generally consists of an external, high-gain antenna combined with a bi-directional signal amplifier This repeater is then connected to a DAS
{i} one who repeats, one who redoes a particular action; device that receives electronic signals and amplifies them for rebroadcasting; repeating decimal (Mathematics)
In networking, a simple hardware device that moves all packets from one local area network segment to another The main purpose of a repeater is to extend the length of the network transmission medium beyond the normal maximum cable lengths
In the "Ethernet" world, a "relay" that regenerates and cleans up signals, but does no buffering of data packets It can extend an Ethernet by strengthening signals, but timing limitations on Ethernets still limit their size
A device inserted at intervals along a circuit to boost and amplify an analog signal being transmitted Repeaters may also regenerate a digital signal - squaring it and cleaning it up - but not changing it Regenerating the signal removes noise and thus reduces the likelihood of error

(n ) A device that propagates electrical signals from one cable to another without making routing decisions or providing packet filtering In ISO/OSI terminology, a repeater is a physical layer intermediate system See router
In telecommunication networks, a repeater is a device that receives a signal on an electromagnetic or optical transmission medium, amplifies the signal, and then retransmits it along the next leg of the medium Repeaters overcome the attenuation caused by free-space electromagnetic-field divergence or cable loss A series of repeaters make possible the extension of a signal over a distance In addition to strengthening the signal, repeaters also remove the "noise" or unwanted aspects of the signal
Used to extend the topology, allowing two or more cable segments to be joined In a 10Base-T network, the repeater provides the central connection point where the gathering of statistics and network management functions take place
A device that connects two network segments to make them work as one Repeaters can extend the length of a network beyond the physical limitations of a single cable
