What is the attenuation level of a twisted pair cable?
Attenuation occurs in all copper cable regardless of whether it is twisted or not. This is because the copper atoms actually 'resist" the electrical voltage being applied (a physics principle).
Which media suffers least attenuation?
Fibre Optic Cable
