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 ...
Attenuation is being measured in dB/km, referring to the loss in signal strength or power of the light. Loss happens due the light traveling through the single-mode or multimode fiber.
There is a variety of wavelengths with which light is traveling. Original wavelength was 580 nm due to support of original LED and detector. As the technology was evolving, the 1310 ...
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 ...
China’s and also many other countries cable TV network starts its two-way upgrade in the late nineties of the 20th century. Currently, across larges parts of China mainland, the cable TV network has not been conducted with directional upgrade, and correspondingly, the bandwidth users developed by the cable TV operators are not greatly increasing. However, at the costal advanced regions, ...
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 ...
