...wire pairs within a cable. Alien Crosstalk, in 10-GbE systems, is the measurement of the signal coupling between wire pairs in different, adjacent cables. • Factors that affect Alien Crosstalk • The amount of ANEXT depends on a number of factors...

...Fibre • Multimode fibre cable has a large-diameter core and therefore has multiple modes of propagation—that is, several wavelengths of light are used in the fibre core. It’s primarily used for lighter- capacity or shorter-distance applications. • M...

...twisted-pair (STP) cable using either a DB9 connector or a unique square connector called the IBM data connector. Later, Token Ring was adapted to use conventional unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors. The most common kinds...

...of wire in 4-pair CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 cable, leaving the other two pairs free to transmit power for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. However, Gigabit Ethernet or 1000BASE-T uses all four pairs of wires, leaving no pairs free for power. So how ca...

...data in a single cable. HDMI is the de facto standard for consumer electronics. HDMI is backward compatible with DVI. Buy only tested cables with the HDMI logo. This guarantees the cable will perform to specification especially because there ...

...more. You can run fibre cable next to industrial equipment without worry. Fibre is also less susceptible to temperature fluctuations and can be submerged in water. • Security • Fibre doesn't radiate signals and is extremely difficult to tap. If it i...

...Gigabit over Category 5 cable has been approved, enabling short stretches of Gigabit speed over existing copper cable. Today, you have many choices when implementing Gigabit Ethernet: • 1000BASE-X • 1000BASE-X refers collectively to the IEEE802.3z s...

...signals over CATx cable up to 100 metres (330 feet), and even farther with the addition of network switches. • Flexible topology with many options • Configure the Agility for point-to-point extension, multicasting, single-target sharing, and K...
