Hello all,<P>My question concerns 10BaseT network cables. I have seen the cat 5 cables pretty much standard in all networks. These of course have the RJ45 connectors with all 8 pins being filled with ...

Back in 1881 when Alexander Graham Bell invented twisted pair cables he could never have imagined they would still be in use today and that we owe so much of our high speed IT cables to his invention.

Moving vast amounts of data between two points quickly, reliably and economically is what many designers are facing regularly when building their systems. When it comes to using copper cables as a ...

Advances in cable, connector, and driver designs make it possible to send DVI and HDMI signals over longer distances.Now that sending RGB analog video long distance over Cat 5 is well accepted, it ...

Recently the IEEE P802.3bq Task Force was formed to create a standard for 40-gigabit Ethernet over copper twisted-pair cabling (40GBASE-T). This is the next generation following 10-gigabit Ethernet ...

Why should twisted-pair cabling, used in large quantities to carry 4-kHz voice signals in the phone system, suddenly work well at 100 MHz and beyond? The simple answer is that it doesn’t. All ...

Swiss cabling specialist Reichle & De-Massari has launched the world’s thinnest Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) copper trunk cable. The new ThinCompact Cat.6A cable shaves almost 70 percent off the bulk ...

A thin-diameter wire (22 to 26 gauge) commonly used for telephone and network cabling. The wires are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted pairs in the cable. Alexander ...

These days, it seems as if the world is tied together with network cable. Although we may take a wired world for granted, the consequence is that we rely on wires to connect us to anything and ...

Logging in as the industry's first adaptive equalizer for composite video over twisted-pair cables, the MAX7474 automatically compensates for cable losses that occur in the transmission of a composite ...
