A very common application is the health care field. Shielded copper cable is often used in health care facilities for its efficiency and resistance to flame.
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between shielding and screening effect?
when we use some metal wrap around a single pair it is called shield like STP ( shilelded twisted pair cable) , when all shielded pair are overall wrapped by some metal it is called screen for example S/STP that is screened shielded twisted pair cable ,
Why is STP cable not commonly used?
The Shielded Twisted pair cable is not commonly used because of a few reasons; some of which are:To be effective in shielding equipment from crossover and noise infiltration All components that are in the network must be shielded properly. It is not easy to guarentee this as some components might not be built with shielding.STP is stifferSTP is more difficult to installSTP requires extra care and equipment to terminate
What is a copper core wrapped in a shield which provides network connectivity?
cables.pretty much every cable is copper core with shielding of some sort.
Some cables of thinner than others, how do I know what the difference is.?
It depends on what cable you're looking at. VGA cables need to be shielded and are thicker, while USB cables require little shielding and are thin.
Why is cable not made at least resistance possible?
While it would be nice if we had cable that had no resistance at all, the only materials that have no resistance are superconductors, and they only work at really, really, really low temperatures. There are some special applications where superconductors are used, but it is largly impracticle because of the cost of making the cable and of keeping it cold. We have a zillion miles of cable in the power grid and the wiring of structures. Most of it is copper. But copper is too heavy and of insufficient strength to use on the big high tension cross country cables hanging from those big towers. Also, aluminum is used in a lot of applications because it is cheaper than copper, though it isn't quite a good a conductor. If we use a slightly larger aluminum wire than the size of the correct size copper wire for a given application, the resistance of that bigger aluminum conductor will be about the same per foot as the smaller copper conductor. Copper is about the best we can do to make a conducting cable that is going to work at ambient temperature. Lastly, there aren't a lot of choices between good old copper and superconductors.
How thick are Ethernet cables?
I didn't find a specific reference (perhaps that part isn't standardized), but it looks like the standard UTP cable has a thickness of about half a centimeter. Note that there are other kinds of cables - some of the kinds include UTP (unshielded, the most commonly used cable, mentioned above), STP (similar to UTP, but shielded, therefore a little thicker), and coaxial cable. Optic fibers are also used for Ethernet.I didn't find a specific reference (perhaps that part isn't standardized), but it looks like the standard UTP cable has a thickness of about half a centimeter.

What is the difference between UTP and STP twisted pair cables?
* UTP for Unshielded Twisted Pair * STP for Shielded Twisted Pair * FTP for Foiled Twisted Pair * S/UTP for Screened Unshielded Twisted Pair * S/STP for Screened Shielded Twisted Pair * S/FTP for Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair* UTP cable has no shielding, only an insulation around the cables * STP cable has a metal shield around each twisted pair, all pairs together are in the cable covered by insulation * FTP cable has a metal shield around all pairs - "the cable"- together * S/UTP cable has a metal shield around all pairs - "the cable"- together(or would be the same as FTP) * S/STP cable has a metal shield around each twisted pair, and a metal shieldaround all pairs - "the cable"- together(or would be the same as S/FTP) * S/FTP cable has a metal shield around each twisted pair, and a metal shield around all pairs - "the cable"- together(or would be the same as S/STP) * UTP is unshielded, that's simple. * FTP and STP are ofted intermixed, sometimes S/UTP is also thrown in. In general it means the cable is shielded in one place. * S/FTP ans S/STP are of course often intermixed, both should get you a double shielded cable. * Unshielded twisted pair cable will do just fine if there are not too much electromagnic interferences (EMI), that's what the twisting is for. * Shielded cable will protect your signal better from interference. Though there are no guarantees of course, if the interference source is too strong it'll still influence things.Things like big electro motors (an elevator engine), powerfull speaker systems (festival rig), strong light installations (that same festival rig) or a nearby high-power cable are some examples of interference sources. * Evidently unshielded cable is typically more flexible then shielded cable. * I have no idea what the practical difference between FTP and STP cable would be, but it might have something to do with the flexibility rather then with the shielding effectiveness.

How do you Become a cox cable installer?
first get some experience then get an application at a cox store then take the test and then see the results
Stp cable connecter used in lan?
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) is twisted pair cabling includes a shield.This type of cabling is not commonly seen in modern LAN networks deployments till 2011 however some newer very high speed Ethernet technologies may require a cable that has a shield.
Can you use cad weld to connect rebar to cooper cable?
I am interested in the answer to the posed question, can you cad weld re bar to copper ground wire? If you can do you protect the dissimilar metals with No-ox or some other treatment? No treatment of the copper cable to rebar in necessary after the exothermic weld is complete (Cadweld). Just pour concrete.
What are the advantage of using copper wire armoured cable?
The advantage of using armoured cable over rigid conduit systems is the flexibility of the cable. There are some situations where conduit can not be bent into the shade needed to make a proper connection to a device. Because of the flexibility if the armoured cable it can be used instead to make a presentable looking job.
Gigabit Ethernet what type of cabling?
There are different types of gibabit Ethernet; the cabling can either be some kind of copper cable, usually UTP, or fiber optic.
