What are their basic functions of the power and data cables?

Basic Functions of Power and Data Cables Power and data cables serve different but essential roles in electronic and communication systems. Power Cables Power cables are responsible for transmitting electrical energy from a power source (such as an outlet or battery) to a device. Their primary functions include: Supplying Power: Delivering electricity to electronic devices, appliances, and machines. Voltage Regulation: Ensuring the correct voltage and current reach the device safely. Safety & Protection: Many power cables include insulation and shielding to prevent electrical hazards like short circuits or overloads. Data Cables Data cables are used to transmit digital or analog signals between devices for communication and information exchange. Their main functions include: Data Transfer: Enabling communication between computers, storage devices, networks, and peripherals. Signal Integrity: Ensuring data is transmitted accurately without loss or interference. Connectivity: Facilitating wired communication in networks, audio/video systems, and industrial setups. Common examples: Power cables: AC power cords, USB charging cables, power adapters. Data cables: Ethernet cables, HDMI cables, USB cables, fiber optic cables. Both cables play crucial roles in powering and connecting modern electronic devices. 🚀

What are the differences between a power cable a signal cable and a data cable?

Power cable is a thick cable connecting your computer to an electrical wall outlet. It can also be a thin wire connecting your modem or other device to a rectangular [ usually ] power supply to your electrical power bar or wall outlet. Data cables are much thinner, used mainly internally, and can be many wires attached together horizontally to form a wide ribbon of wires. However, a data cable can also be a much thicker cable connecting your modem, router, printer etc. to your computer.
