The answer is in the name of the cables; co-axial cable has an outer an inner part which share a common axis (hence the name co-axial). Usually the outer part acts as a screen to protect the inner part from electrical interference. Twisted pair cable consists of a number of pairs of cables. Each pair is twisted together and is used for a single signal; one side of the pair sends the normal signal, the other sends the inverted version. At the receiving end, the normal and inverted signals are subtracted, because any electrical noise is likely to affect each of the pair of cables equally (because they are coupled together by being twisted), subtracting the two should produce a noise free resulting signal. There are variations; sometimes each pair is screened - improving the noise immunity, particularly from other signals in the same cable - sometimes the entire bundle of cables is screened. Occassionally, both the individual pairs are screened and the bundle is also screened.

What cables carry the signal from a cable modem to a PC is it a RCA cable HDMI ethernet or coaxial?
coaxial
Is cable coaxial the same as satellite coaxial?
Most times they are the same but a satellite signal needs to be carried by RG6 cable it is a heavier gauge wire then say RG59. Regular or analog cable signal is sometimes carried by RG59 but digital cable should use RG6. +++ The primary specification is not conductor size but the impedance and capacitance of the cable.
The center copper core of coaxial cable is called what?
Coaxial cable has a center core of copper wire surrounded by a layer of insulation, which is in turn surrounded by a conductive braided shielding and encased in a final insulation sheath. The center copper core and the braided shielding layer act as two independent conductors, thus allowing two - way communications over a coaxial cable.
What are the disadvantages of using coaxial cable?
scattering, costs high than wireless communication, difficult to maintain,splicing should be perfectly taken care ,otherwise the loses increases in the optic fibres
What is the easiest way to get HDTV from your antenna to your projector?
Coaxial cable, RG6u or RG 59u. The RG6u has less loss for longer cable runs.

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.

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?

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.
What are the different types of cables in computing?
Coaxial cable, Optical fiber cable, Twisted Pair
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.
