Coaxial cables are conductors that send an electrical signal through an inner conductor which is surrounded by a protective insulating layer and sealed by a shield. The cable itself is protected by the outside insulating layer. Coaxial cable is commonly used for video and CATV transmission. The advantage is that electromagnetic fields have less leakage outside the shield.

What is 75 ohm?

Ohms are a measure of resistance to electric current.You're probably talking about a 75 ohm coaxial cable. In this case, 75 ohms is the characteristic impedance of the cable.


What are Characteristics of a coaxial cable?

Optical-fiber systems have many advantages over metallic-based communication systems. These advantages include interference, attenuation, and bandwidth characteristics. Furthermore, the relatively smaller cross section of fiber-optic cables allows room for substantial growth of the capacity in existing conduits. Fiber-optic characteristics can be classified as linear and nonlinear. Nonlinear characteristics are influenced by parameters, such as bit rates, channel spacing, and power levels.


What is it called when a HFC cable powering system is designed to power one or more power inserters?

When a Hybrid Fiber Coaxial (HFC) cable powering system is designed to power one or more power inserters, it is referred to as a "Power Over Coax" (PoC) system. This setup allows for the simultaneous transmission of both data and power through the coaxial cable, enabling remote powering of devices like power inserters without the need for separate power lines.

Will a rg6u coaxial cable replace a 5c2v coaxial cable?

Generally speaking, RG6U can replace 5C-2V coaxial cable because these are cables with very similar characteristics. RG6U cable is even better because it has lesser attenuation than 5C-2V. So you can without a doubt use this cable if you're replacing cable for your TV.

The difference between UTP cable and Coaxial cable?

A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other. Since they have a common center, or axis, they are called "coaxial" (co-axial).A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other.
