Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The physical layer of the OSI model defines the physical specifications for devices and media, including the cable types, connector types, data rates, and other characteristics that are essential for transmitting bits over the network. It primarily deals with the mechanical and electrical details of the physical connection, such as voltage levels, signaling, and data encoding.
