How do the characteristics of coaxial cable compare with twisted-pair cable?
Both the coaxial cable and twisted pair cable have a basic connection medium for network cabling. <<>> Coaxial cable can be used for transmission of RF (radio frequencies) whereas Cat 5 (twisted pairs cable) can not.
What are the major classes of guided media?
twisted pair cable, coaxial cable, and fiber optic cable
What are the different types of cables in computing?
Coaxial cable, Optical fiber cable, Twisted Pair
Are twisted pair wire and coxial cable the same?
No. Coaxial cable is a single wire that has a thick coating around it. A common use of coaxial cable is for cable television. This is the cable that goes from the jack on the wall into your cable box. Twisted pair contains multiple cables which are split into pairs and twisted together. CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 cable are all examples of twisted pair. There are a total of 8 wires inside. Every two wires are twisted together to form a pair. The purpose of the cables being twisted together is to reduce electrical interference between the wires.
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 cables have typically been used in cable plants?
fiber optic, coaxial, and twisted-pair
Name the two basic types of transmission line which is most widely used?
coaxial cable and twisted pair cable. coaxial cable is the most widely used type of transmission line.
Why is twisted pair cable replacing coaxial cable?
Twisted pair cable is replacing coaxial cable primarily due to its cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and ease of installation. It is lighter and more manageable, making it suitable for a wider range of applications, especially in networking environments. Additionally, advancements in technology have improved the performance of twisted pair cables, enabling higher data transfer rates and better noise resistance, which enhances overall communication quality.
Rank the following five media examples-twisted pair coaxial cable fiber-optic cable microwave and satellite-in order from highest data transmission speed to lowest data transmission speed?
rank the following from highest to lowest in data transmission speed twisted pair, coaxial cable, fiber-optic, microwave, and satellite
What are two advantages of using twisted-pair cabling over coaxial cabling on a network?
1) Twisted pair cable is less expensive2) Twisted pair cable is required for modern transmission standards****************It is a thin, flexible cable that is easy to string between walls.Because UTP is small, it does not quickly fill up wiring ducts.UTP costs less per foot than any other type of LAN cable
Is the HDMI cable coaxial?
No. HDMI cable uses a 19-pin connector for twisted pair connections that carry video, audio and control in digital format.
How do you connect coax to twisted pair?
To connect coaxial cable to twisted pair cable, you typically use a device called a balun (balanced-unbalanced transformer). The balun converts the unbalanced signal from the coax to a balanced signal suitable for the twisted pair. Connect the coax to the input of the balun and then connect the output of the balun to the twisted pair. This setup allows for effective signal transmission between the two different cable types.
