5.4 Flashcards
The two types of to the actual cable determines its maximum supported distance
Passive and active
This to annex cable does not contain internal electrical component and sufficient for the shortest distance distances of less than 5 to 7 m
Passive
Contains internal electrical components to strengthen signals over a slightly longer distance of 10m
Active
This cable consists of color-coded pairs of insulated copper wires each with a diameter of 24 to .8 mm every two wires or twisted around each other to form pairs and all the pairs are in case of a plastic she’s
Twisted pair cable
The number of twist permit or foot is known as
Twist ratio
The higher the twist Ratio lower the cross talk but higher
Attenuation
TIA/EIA organizations finalize their certification for – – – – – wiring is it in a standard call TIA/EIA – 568
Twisted pair
This cable has 10 MB ps Bandwidth, max frequency 16 MHZ, used more commonly for wired telephone connections and should not be used in a modern net work
Cat three
This cable has 100 MBPs Bandwidth, max frequency 100 MHZ common, Required minimum for fast ethernet
Cat five
1000 MBPS Bandwidth, 350Mhz Max frequency column a higher grade version of category five wiring that contains high quality copper offers a higher twist ratio and use a slightly more advanced message for reducing crosstalk
CAt5e
This cable is capable of 1GPPS or at shorter distances 10 GDPS Band with, 250MHZ frequency common includes a plastic core to prevent cross talk between twisted Pair in the cable
Cat 6
10 GBps bandwidth. 500 MHZ Frequency. Reduces attenuation and crosstalk and allows for potential exceeding traditional Netwerk segment length limit
CAt6a
10 GBPS at shorter distances up to 100 GBPS, 600 MHz frequency, supports higher frequencies because each wire pair is wrapped and it’s on shielding then packaged in additional shielding Denise she’s sheets
Cat seven
42 100 GBPS at very short distances, 100 MHz, uses increase bandwidth to offer higher data rates than cat seven but still requires specialized connectors to reach full potential
Cat seven a
25 and 40 GBPS at longer distances than cat seven, 2 GHz, already widely available for purchase by consumers for home networks relies on further improved and exist tensive shielding optimize for short distance backbone connections within the data center that supports 40 GPPS over 30 m
Cat eight
