What is the difference between cat5 and cat6 cables?
CAT 5 cables are recommended for Ethernet connections up to 100 mbit. CAT6 are approved for 1000 Mbit (gigabit) Ethernet. If you are installing cables for a network these days, choose CAT6 to ensure future compatibility.
Can you show the wiring diagram for cat5 and cat5e and cat6 cables?
WikiAnswers cannot show pictures or diagrams.
What is the maximum VGA cable length between PC and Plasma?
About 100 feet for minor loss to about 500-700ft for total loss. However VGA signals are extremely volatile to EMI. So shielding, copper quality, and gold plated caps will make a difference.With good quality, low loss 75 Ohm coax cables, the maximum length can be several hundred feet with a minimal loss. The cable will be expensive, bulky and will need correctly terminating at each end to perform properly. Distances in excess of 400 feet have been handled with this technique with no noticeable losses and without additional hardware drivers. Note that this technique uses four or five separate cables and it is no longer a single VGA cable.With an additional line driver, total lengths in excess of 1000 feet are also possible.You may not want to run VGA cable more than 100'. If so use a VGA over Cat6 solution. This will often provide a lower cost solution for long distances but it is important that the CAT6 converter system provides for signal skew adjustment. The adjustment is needed because CAT5 and CAT6 cables are constructed in a way that results in a longer cable length on some signals compared to others. The difference in length is sufficient to be seen as misaligned red, green and blue images on the display. When the adjustment is made, signals are delayed by the correct amount of time to bring the images in line once more. Many of the less expensive VGA over CAT5 systems do not have the adjustment or have a very limited adjustment. Make sure that you are aware of the maximum adjustments available before purchasing.Note that CAT6 transmission is still using the analog signal and therefore, can suffer similar losses to those seen with co-ax cable.
What cabling you using star topology?
cat5, cat6, utp, stp cables etc.
Which type twisted pair cable will you use to connect router to router?
UTP (unshielded twisted pair) Cat5 or Cat6.
What two types of cables would most commonly be used for new runs?
Fiber or Cat6, depending on the funds available and the size of the network.
What is the most popular transmission medium option for wired Ethernet networks is?
The most popular is probably Cat5e Unshielded twisted pair (UTP). Cat6 has begun to supplant this in new installations.
What is Cat6 UTP Cable?
A cat6 cable is more formally known as a category 6 cable and is a cable used for a number of networks first layer (otherwise known as the physical layer) including Gigabit Ethernet. The category 6 is downward compatible with both Category 3 and Category 5/5e standards
Which categories of UTP cabling can be used in Gigabit Ethernet networks?
According to the Certblaster 2009 Comptia A+ CD practice exam the answer is Cat 6 cablingCat5E can also be used and is in use more than the expensive and hard to work with CAT6.
What protects utp from emi?
UTP
Which is faster stp or utp?
UTP Is unshielded and STP is shielded UTP generally being bulkier and more expensive.
What distance between modem and computer is best?
It should not exceed 75 meters in length. Use good quality patch-cord or network cable. Theoritically, a Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 UTP Cable can be extended upto 100 meters, but minimum will be the best
When did UTP - group - end?
UTP - group - ended in 2007.
When was UTP - group - created?
UTP - group - was created in 2003.
What is the acronym of UTP?
UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair.
