longer cable lengths have greater signal attenuation
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.
False
The maximum length of a 1000 ft Ethernet cable for network connections is 328 feet.
optical fiber
It is the loss of data from the coaxial cable during transmission .
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.
For any Cat 5 cable, the maximum segment length is 100 meters per segment.
Attenuation
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).
