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.

Coax uses what type of LAN?

10BASE2 is a variant of Ethernet that uses thin coaxial cable. The 10 comes from the maximum transmission speed of 10 millions of bits per second, The BASE stands for baseband signaling, and the 2 supposedly refers to the maximum cable length of 200 meters.


What LAN media are commonly found on a data network?

For LANs the most common media is UTP cable.


What is function of coaxial cable?

coaxial cable has a solid copper or copper-clad-steel centre conductor surrounded by a non-conductive dielectric insulating material. The dielectric is surrounded by foil shield/s and/or copper braid/s which form the outer conductor and also shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI). The outer conductor/shield is encased in a PVC jacket.


What is wireless communication media?

Wired transmission media is media used to transfer information over a network, such as Twisted Pair cable. This is opposed to wireless transmission media which uses radio waves to transmit information. There are many types of wired transmission media such as coaxial cable, telephone lines, etc. Basically any form of wire used to transmit information over a network is considered a wired transmission media.


What kind of wiring is commonly used in a bus topology?

A bus topology for a LAN will typically use coaxial cable, either 10Base5 (thicknet) or 10base2 (thin-net) copper wiring.


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.
