What cable can be used to connect a transceiver to the cable in a thicknet network?

Thicknet coax cables are 10base5 cables, RG-8 or RG-6 cables.


Ethernet networks are always connected using twisted-pair cable technology?

No, not at all. That's by far the most common today, but at one time it was much more common to run either "thinnet" or "thicknet", both of which used coaxial cables.


Another name for 10Base-5 cable is?

thick ethernet or thicknet


What is the most common type connector used with coaxial cable on a ThinNet Ethernet network?

BNC


What are physical communication media?

# Twisted pair - Wire twisted to avoid crosstalk interference. It may be shielded or unshielded. #* UTP-Unshielded Twisted Pair. Normally UTP contains 8 wires or 4 pair. 100 meter maximum length. 4-100 Mbps speed. #* STP-Shielded twisted pair. 100 meter maximum length. 16-155 Mbps speed. Lower electrical interference than UTP. # Coaxial - Two conductors separated by insulation such as TV 75 ohm cable. Maximum length of 185 to 500 meters. ## Thinnet - Thinnet uses a British Naval Connector (BNC) on each end. Thinnet is part of the RG-58 family of cable*. Maximum cable length is 185 meters. Transmission speed is 10Mbps. Thinnet cable should have 50 ohms impedance and its terminator has 50 ohms impedance. A T or barrel connector will have no impedance. Maximum thinnet nodes are 30 on a segment. One end of each cable is grounded. ## Thicknet - Half inch rigid cable. Maximum cable length is 500 meters. Transmission speed is 10Mbps. Expensive and is not commonly used. (RG-11 or RG-8). A vampire tap or piercing tap is used with a transceiver attached to connect computers to the cable. 100 connections may be made. The computer has an attachment unit interface (AUI) on its network card which is a 15 pin DB-15 connector. The computer is connected to the transceiver at the cable from its AUI on its network card using a drop cable. Maximum thicknet nodes are 100 on a segment. One end of each cable is grounded. 3. Fiber-optic - Data is transmitted using light rather than electrons. Usually there are two fibers, one for each direction. Cable length of 2 Kilometers. Speed from 100Mbps to 2Gbps. This is the most expensive and most difficult to install, but is not subject to interference. Two types of cables are: 1. Single mode cables for use with lasers has greater bandwidth and costs more. Injection laser diodes (ILD) work with single mode cable. 2. Multimode cables for use with Light Emitting Diode (LED) drivers. All signals appear to arrive at the same time. P intrinsic N diodes or photodiodes are used to convert light to electric signals when using multimode.{| ! Media ! Distance(meters) ! Speed ! Approx Cost/station | UTP 100 4-100Mbps $90 STP 100 16-155Mbps $125 Thinnet 185 10Mbps $25 Thicknet 500 10Mbps $50 Fiber 2000 100Mbps-2Gbps $250 (multimode) |}

What cable often associate with a bus topology network?

Local Area Network Cable usually associate with a bus topology network. In a Bus topology network simple LAN cables are used with LAN Hubs ( i.e. having a collection of LAN ports ) which in turn connect many systems with the server systems. LAN cables are available in various length ranging from 1meter onwards.


A communications medium that uses single copper wire surrounded by thick insulation is?

Coax Cable or called "thicknet". Its a much older and outdata medium which was used in Bus topologies. Grade 65 is what was typically used for thicknet. It looks almost identical to a TV Cable, which I think (not sure here) is grade 42.


What is the maximum distance a Thinnet coax network cable can run?

coax is 200 meter maximum ,if you want more than 200 meter(video transmission) you can even use cat 5 cable with video transmitter and receiver adapters and it will be the cheap and best way. futronicservices@gmail.com
