What is signal attenuation
signal attenuation is the weakening or degrading of the signal.
Example: UTP can only be run at 100 meters before signal attenuation occurs
What does Plenum-rated cable mean & where would you use this
This means the cable has a special Teflon coating to reduce the amount of PVC chemicals released into the air in case of a fire
Plenum-rated cables are mainly used anywhere a sprinkler system cannot be reached. Example: Inside above-dropped ceilings
