Cable plant - cabling system in the enterprise including all the hardware. All the cable are following the same cabling standard. Standard is well know as the structured cabling. It is used in order to maximize performance while minimizing upkeep. Standard is independent from the type of the media that is being used in the network, it applies for copper ...
Serial-data transmission where bits are continuously transmitted in a single transmission line. Most common serial data transmission method is called RS-232 (Recommended Standard 232). RS-232 specifies Physical layer values like voltage, timing, and compatibility. This standard is used with most common connectors - RJ-45, DB-9, and DB-25, or lotus screw type, as used in our video over fiber equipment series.
Serial ...
Differences here are not that hard to understand. If you are in scenario, where you need to plug multiple new patch cables with length between 3 and 25 feet, it is good to know how to terminated twisted pair properly. If you have spare RJ-45 plugs, some amount of cable and the networking tool kit, it would be piece of ...
If we complete deep comparison of STP and UTP in the characteristics that both of them are sharing, we might find many similarities.
Both types of cable are able to transmit data with great speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 10 Gbps. Throughput can be affected by the cable grade and method used for data transmission.
RJ-45 is being ...
The STP or Shielded Twisted Pair is a twisted pair cable that is additionally insulated by foil or/and braided copper shielding . This additional shielding is able to prevent external electromagnetic signals from affecting the signal traveling over the cable. Other purpose is to help to contain signal inside. The shielding might be grounded for better effect. Effect might be ...
Remember our articles about OSI Interworking Layers, and Physical Layer particularly? So, here's a key element, cornerstone of networks today - twisted pair cable.
Twisted pair, as it is clear from the name is made of pairs of wires that are twisted around each other. Each wire is having its own shell, but also there is an outer shell that is ...
