longer cable lengths have greater signal attenuation


Which cable have less attenuation?

optical fiber


Attenuation of coaxial cable?

It is the loss of data from the coaxial cable during transmission .


What is the cable property that determines the distance at which the signal traveling on a cable begins to weaken?

Attenuation


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


What is the attenuation per foot in telephone cable?

1 db


Why attenuation is much higher in coaxial cable than in twisted pair cable?

It is not true. Attenuation is higher in twisted pair cable. See related links: It is, because coaxial cable is concluded system and magnetic field of signal in coaxial cable is kept inside the cable so there is little energy losses because no energy is spent on inducing currents outside of cable.


What is attenuation in decibels?

The degeneration of a signal over a distance on a network cable is called attenuation. It does not have any relation with decibels. The strength of signal just gets reduced.


What are different attenuation factors in optical fiber?

There are three types of attenuation in fibe optics cable. 1). Bending Losses 2). Scattering 3). Absorption


An increase in temperature will the attenuation of a cable?

Basically we should also keep in mind knowledge about voltage and current. If we keep voltage constant then by increase in temperature also increase the attenuation, if we keep current constant then attenuation drops by increasing temperature.


What is a disadvantageof using the twisted pair cable?

The disadvantage is that attenuation increases with frequency above 100 kHz in these cables.
