Q.4 If there are n signal sources of same data rate, then the TDM link has _______ slots.
A. n
B. n/2
C. n*2
D. 2n
Ans : n
Q.5 If link transmits 4000 frames per second, and each slot has 8 bits, the transmission rate of circuit this TDM is _________.
A. 32kbps
B. 500bps
C. 500bps
D. 32bps
Ans : 32kbps
Frame rate = 4000/sec and number of bits in slot = 8
Transmission rate = (4000 * 8) bps
= 32000bps
= 32kbps
