Which type of Ethernet cable to be used for LAN setup?
It depends on the type of LAN; the most common cable in a LAN is UTP cable. In older LAN types you could also use coaxial copper cable. For UTP cable that would be Cat 5, cat 5E or above for most LANs.
What type of copper cable has become the standard in the LAN marketplace?
UTP or unshielded twisted pair
What is UPT CAT5e Cable used for?
it is not UPT ,it is UTP which stands Unshielded Twisted Pair. The UTP is mainly used for network cabling i.e; LAN cabling.
What LAN media are commonly found on a data network?
For LANs the most common media is UTP cable.
How do you use a utp cable tester?
there is lan tester available in the market, we have to connect one side of the crimped cable to one of the part of lan tester and the other side crimped cable had to be enter the other part of the lan tester... then we have to on the lan tester and we are able to visible LED's blinking one after the other , if not ther is a problem in crimping the cable..
Types of cables and which one is used where?
Mainly in LAN we can use 4 types of cables: 1) STP - Shielded Twisted Pair 2) UTP- Unshielded Twisted Pair UTP have 2 types 1 is Straight Cable 2 is Cross Cable 3) Coaxial Cable 4) Fiber Optic Cable
How do you make connection over LAN cable that have distance over 200 meters?
The maximum distance a utp cable can handle is 100 m. If you need to bridge over 200 meter and you can only utp cable, you will need to put in enough hubs or switches so that the length of utp cable is never more than 100 m. You can forego of the utp cable and make use of COAX cable. A good quality cable will transmit signals over around 300 m. distance. You can forego of the utp cable and make use of fiber optic cable. Then you can transmit signals over a 40 km distance. Wireless Microwave and WiMax would be an option to cover the distance using radio waves.
What is the limitation of length for utp cable?
Most UTP cable is limited to 100 meters.
What is the shielding made of on a typical UTP cable?
Actually, a UTP cable doesn`t have any shielding. UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair.
What utp cable is used to connect switch1 to switch2?
Typically a straight thru UTP cable can be used.
What is UTP Switch Port?
it is a point where a UTP cable connects to the device
How do you create a LAN connection between 5 pc's using a server?
A server is not necessary to create a LAN. You can connect all of the devices using UTP cable and a switch or router (a hub would work too, but they are slower devices).
