Yes, this is done all the time. Category 5, category 5e, and category 6 are the most common copper cables used at this time. They are basically advanced versions of the original phone cable.
Coax cable is another type of copper cable used to carry digital information. It is the cable the satellite dish and cable companies use and the most common type is RG-6. This cable is capable of faster data transfer speeds than the phone type cables.
What else can I help you with?
Why are copper wires used instead of steel wires?
I think copper is cheaper.
Which metal is commonly used in electrical wires?
Copper is the most common metal used in electrical wires due to its high conductivity and ability to easily carry electrical currents.
Which wire can carry a higher current?
The ability of a wire to carry a higher current depends on its gauge (thickness) and material. Generally, thicker wires, such as those with a lower American Wire Gauge (AWG) number, can carry higher currents due to lower resistance and reduced heat generation. Additionally, copper wires typically carry more current than aluminum wires of the same gauge due to copper's superior conductivity. Always refer to electrical codes and specifications for safe current-carrying capacities.
Why wires are made of cooper?
Electrical wires are made from copper, as copper is a good conductor of electricity.
Can you connect copper wires to tin coated copper wires?
Yes, you can connect copper wires to tin coated copper wires using a soldering iron and solder. The tin coating can be heated and merged with the copper wire to create a strong electrical connection. Heat the wires together and apply solder until it melts and flows over the connection point, forming a bond.
What element is used for wires that carry electricity?
Copper
Does a T line carry digital data over twisted pair wires?
Yes it does. It will carry digital data as well as voice signals.
What type of signal uses existing telephone copper wires to send and receive?
both analog and digital.
What are some everyday items that contain copper?
Pennies (copper-plated zinc), objects made of brass (brass is an alloy of copper and zinc), and wires and cables that carry electricity and/or electronic signals.
Why are copper wires used instead of steel wires?
I think copper is cheaper.
Which metal is commonly used in electrical wires?
Copper is the most common metal used in electrical wires due to its high conductivity and ability to easily carry electrical currents.
Difference between ADSL and fiber optic?
ADSL is a way of using a pair of copper wires which is normally used for a phone line, to transfer high volumes of data. The copper wires were only originally designed to carry a phone call.Fibre optic cables are especially designed to transfer high volumes of data. They are made of glass, not copper wires.
Why would the walls of many buildings contain copper wires?
To carry electricity , and people use copper wire and not , e.g. i don't know,plastic? because copper is a good conductor of electricity

What is bus a computer topic?
Buses are the set of wires that carry special information to or from the CPU
Why do you use copper in wires?
we use copper in wires because it is a conductor of both heat and electricity
Why wires are made of cooper?
Electrical wires are made from copper, as copper is a good conductor of electricity.
