- 8what is a data packetfiles have to be broken up into small chunks of data aka data packets in order to be transmitted over a network. The data is then re-built once it reaches the destination computer. Networking hardware is required to connect computers and manage data packets communication. Protocols control how data is transmitted across networks.
