Best Answer

Both the coaxial cable and twisted pair cable have a basic connection medium for network cabling.

<<>>

Coaxial cable can be used for transmission of RF (radio frequencies) whereas Cat 5 (twisted pairs cable) can not.

Will a rg6u coaxial cable replace a 5c2v coaxial cable?

Generally speaking, RG6U can replace 5C-2V coaxial cable because these are cables with very similar characteristics. RG6U cable is even better because it has lesser attenuation than 5C-2V. So you can without a doubt use this cable if you're replacing cable for your TV.

What are the characteristics of coaxial cable?

Coaxial cables are conductors that send an electrical signal through an inner conductor which is surrounded by a protective insulating layer and sealed by a shield. The cable itself is protected by the outside insulating layer. Coaxial cable is commonly used for video and CATV transmission. The advantage is that electromagnetic fields have less leakage outside the shield.

The difference between UTP cable and Coaxial cable?

A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other. Since they have a common center, or axis, they are called "coaxial" (co-axial).A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other.
