first just administrator of network can install software and execute that so just he/she can sniff the packet through the network , second the packets which have password and user name
it hashed by OS automatically and if you capture that packet you can not see the data of the packet .

Microwaves are radio waves that provide a high speed transmission. In Microwaves transmission, data is transmitted from one station to another. Microwave station contains an antenna, transceiver (transmitter & receiver) and other equipments that are required for microwave communication. Microwave uses the line-of-sight transmission, which means that in microwave transmission system the data signals travel in a straight path and cannot bend. Microwave stations or antennas are usually installed on the high towers or buildings. Thus microwave stations need to be placed within 20 to 30 miles of each other. Each microwave station receives signals from the previous stations. In this way, data is transmitted from one place to another.

The data transmission speed of microwave transmission is up to 150 Mbps. Microwave transmission is used in environments where installing physical transmission media is impossible and where line-of-sight transmission is available. It is used in wide-open areas. Today, it is used by telephone companies, cable television providers, universities etc.
