Understanding CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA - CompTIA Network+ N10-005: 3.7

THE N10-005 EXAM HAS BEEN RETIRED. See the latest Network+ videos at www.FreeNetworkPlus.com
One key component of any network is getting a signal onto the transmission medium. In this video, you'll learn the nuances of CSMA/CD and how it differs from CSMA/CA.

Awesome video, a good analogy for CSMA/CA is Air Traffic Control, before a pilot can land, he asks the tower, "Is the strip clear for landing?" (RTS message). If the landing strip is clear, the tower says "It's clear for landing" (CTS message). If the strip is not clear, the pilot has to circle back around, wait, and send another RTS.

So doee that means that csma/dc is at a disadvantage when it comes to bandwidth or speed since its a half duplex ? *sorry I am a newbie*
