Coaxial cable, depending on the type, can have a large frequency bandwidth capability. And with multi-frequency systems, coax should be around for quite awhile yet. I also think one of the other items keeping cable companies using coax is also the expense of fiber-optic cable and the cost in manpower to change it out. A lot of cable companies are in the process of doing so, but it's going to be slow going, simply because of the costs involved.

What is the difference between baseband coaxial and broadband coaxial cable?

The difference between baseband coaxial and broadband coaxial cable is baseband coaxial technology uses digital signaling in which the cable carries only one type of digital signal. Where as the broadband coaxial technology typically transmits analog signals and is capable of transmitting multiple frequencies of data simultaneously.

What does coaxial 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.

Why is a broadband cable less commonly used by businesses than DSL or T carrier services?

Broadband cable is less often used in businesses because most office buildings do not contain a coaxial cable infrastructure. Network+ Guide to Networks pg 323 fifth edition.


Why tree build by only broadband coaxial cable?

So keep coax cables as least 6 in. away from electrical cable, even if the cables are separated by wood or other building materials.


What is the difference between baseband coaxial cable and broadband coaxial cable?

Iam pretty sure that baseband coax was 50 ohm and was used for networking computer, were broadband coax is 75 ohm and used in the cable tv industry. A baseband signal is the original signal before it is modulated onto a carrier, mulitplexed or mixed. A broadband signal contains many channels which have been modulated or multiplexed onto a common carrier. The significant difference is the bandwidth of each. The impedance of the cable which carries either of them is totally irrelevant to the definition.
