Is cable coaxial the same as satellite coaxial?
Most times they are the same but a satellite signal needs to be carried by RG6 cable it is a heavier gauge wire then say RG59. Regular or analog cable signal is sometimes carried by RG59 but digital cable should use RG6. +++ The primary specification is not conductor size but the impedance and capacitance of the cable.
Does coaxial cable give more cable than white cable?
no there about the same one's just white
What does 'coaxial cable' mean?
The term coaxial comes from the inner conductor and the outer shield sharing ("co-") the same axis. It is often used as a high-frequency transmission line to carry a high-frequency or broadband signal but may also be used for frequencies as low as audio frequency.
What is a optical audio cable used for?
An optical audio cable is used to transmit digital audio (AC-3) signal from the source to the receiver, such as from a DVD player to a digital audio amplifier/receiver. You can transmit 5.1 dolby digital or DTS surround sound with an optical audio cable, same as digital coaxial audio cable.
Can you use coax cable for digital?
Yes. Coaxial cable is the preferred method for carrying the signal. The important factor is the frequency of the signal that is being carried by the cable. Most coaxial cable that you will want for carrying your signal will be RG-6. This will handle signals for radio, television, and satellite receivers. It is not important whether it is an analog or digital program. Some manufacturers use a deceptive advertising technique and will emphasize that their cable is for digital signals. They want you to think that another competing product that does not make a claim to be for a digital signal is not suited for digital. The cable doesn't know the difference between a digital or an analog radio frequency signal. It handles both of them in exactly the same manner. Some important specifications to consider when selecting a coaxial cable are: -Bandwidth (what frequencies can it carry) -Attenuation (how well does it carry the signal without weakening it) -Impedance (proper impedance matching helps to carry the signal - most cable will be 75 ohm and will need to be used for 75 ohm equipment, 50 ohm cable for 50 ohm equipment) Don't use a long cable when a short one will do. A longer cable attenuates (weakens) the signal more. RG-59 can be used for short distances, but RG-6 is a much better choice. RG-59 is not a good choice for HDTV or satellite signals, but it can be used for connecting a VCR to a television.
What are the uses of coax cable in the world of technology?
Coaxial cable, or coax, is an electrical cable with an inner conductor surrounded by a flexible, tubular insulating layer, surrounded by a tubular conducting shield. The term coaxial comes from the inner conductor and the outer shield sharing the same geometric axis. Coaxial cable was invented by English engineer and mathematician Oliver Heaviside, who patented the design in 1880.[1]
How to get free cable in apartment?
About the same way you can get busted for signal theft.
What is the fios cable used for?
The FiOS cable is used to deliver fiber optic cable to residents. Most traditional cable companies deliver cable through coaxial cables, FiOS uses fiber optic cables to get the same product to consumers without the hassle.
Can two competing cable or highspeed internet providers serve or cover the same household?
Yes, you can have DSL and a Cable modem installed at the same residience. The DSL would use a phone line to connect to the web and the Cable modem would use a coaxial cable, like the kind that plugs into your TV.
Do you need a digital converter box for a digiatal television?
If you get your signal from a cable company you might, all cable companies are not the same.
How do you hook up cable to a TV with a broken coaxial input but has the three AV inputs?
If your television has a broken coaxial input but has three AV inputs (Red, White, and Yellow), and your cable box has the same AV inputs in the back of it, which they usually do, all you have to do is connect the cords from the cable box to the TV(if you dont have the RCA cords, these can be purchased at any electronic store). Instead of putting your TV on channel 3 or 4 as you would when the cable is hooked up by coaxial, switch your channel to one of your Input or Video channels, as you would do if you were trying to watch a VHS tape or DVD. You'll see that the AV outlets provide just as good of a picture as the coaxial hookup.
What is inside a broadband cable?
The cable is what is called a "coaxial cable" and is made of four parts:a copper wire at the center for the signalplastic small cell foam insulator of a precisely controlled diametera copper wire mesh tube around the plastic insulator for the shield/grounda thin plastic insulator jacket to protect the cable from damageAll four of these parts share the same common axis as the central copper wire (part 1), thus making the cable coaxial.
