What is the role in electronics of a cat 5 cable?

A Cat 5 cable is an Ethernet cable, used in computer networks. Cat 5 cables are designed for high signal integrity, and can carry two separate telephone lines.


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.

How do you connect a wireless router to the back of your ps3?

A PS3 has WiFi and you can put the router next to your modem. The only thing the back of a PS3 uses for the internet is for a wired connection with an ethernet cable to your router or modem instead of a WiFi connection


What is 10 100 1000base t in networking?

10baseT is the designation for ethernet LAN running on twisted pair cable at 10 megabits per second using cables and hardware compatible with 10baseT. 100baseT, also called Fast Ethernet, uses twisted pair cable where data transfer occurs at 100 megabits per second with cables and hardware compatible with 100baseT. 1000baseT (gigabit ethernet) runs at 1000 megabit per second or 1 gigabit with cables and hardware capable of maintaining that speed. The higher speed cables and hardware are supposed to be compatible with the earlier slower speed. The T in 10..baseT indicates that it uses twisted pair cabling (called category 5, 5e, 6, 6a depending on the speed it can handle) with various rules about the cables regarding insulation, shielding, connection rules and a maximum cable distance of about 100 meters. Earlier versions of ethernet used different cableing. 10base5 used a special thick coaxial cable, ran at 10 megabits per second with a maximum cable length of about 5 hundred meters. 10base2 used thinner cheaper coaxial cabling and connectors, also ran at 10 megabits per second but with a maximum cable length of about 200 meters. Both of these are considered obsolete having been replaced by the twisted pair cable.

How are Ethernet cables made?

Ethernet cables are made from cat5e cable. This cable is designed for carrying signals and is commonly used in networking. It is made up of several multicolored wires which carry the signal. This cable must have Ethernet Connectors on both end to enable to to be plugged into a router or modem.


Technical term for the kind of cable that carries a tv signal?

There are two types of cable used for television radio frequency signals: 300 ohm twin lead flat cable and 75 ohm coaxial cable. The twin lead is typically used with a rabbit ears antenna and coaxial is typically used with roof top antenna or cable TV setups.For television baseband video signals coaxial cables are usually used.However for digital television baseband video signals these are not adequate and special cables (e.g. HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort) are used. These cables are typically many twisted pairs in a common shield.answer is Coaxial cable


What is instrumentation cable?

Instrumentation cable carries a digital protocol such as devicenet, profibus, foundation fieldbus or even ethernet. Compared to regular hard wired devices that would use coaxial cables.


What are characteristics of coaxial cables?

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.


Give some Areas of application of coaxial cables?

Coaxial cable (multiple cables with a common axis) is widely used for signalling as the outer cable acts as a screen for the inner cables. Coax is ideal for short/medium distance signals - it's easy to interface to, and cheap. For longer distance, it has some disadvantages - the signal starts to decay over distance and repeaters have to be used to reamplify the signal.
