vs Fiber In: Computers and Technology Copper vs Fiber Copper vs. Fiber Paper In putting in a network there are many aspects to consider such as the Topology or design, what type of hardware to be used, and types of cabling. Copper cables are the norm when it comes to building and network and widely used in our communications of today. Copper has been used in electric wiring since the invention of the electromagnet. Copper and its alloys are also used in buildings is the most important

Step 1: Mounting the power supply to the computer case A fairly simple step to get your started. Before messing with the motherboard, RAM, and CPU, I mounted the power supply to the computer case. Simply slide the power supply into the computer from the INSIDE. I’ve heard horror stories of people trying to jam the power supply through the back. Once you get the power supply into the case, the mounting holes should line up like so… Simply tighten down the screws that were provided and TADA

Hunt 7/23/14 Unit 6 Assignment 1 Cable Testers After installing cables in a building it is necessary to test them to make sure they are functional and did not get damaged during the install. There are many tools that can be used for testing cables, the type of cable that you are working with will determine the kind of tester that you will need. When working with copper cables one of the tools you can use is a tone generator, this tool can be used to test cables for crossovers, and shorts. This

cabling, user much keeps in mind that twisted pair cables such as voice grade can support data speed of 19Kbp up to a distance of six miles. On the other hand data grade cabling have a speed of to 100 Mbps. 2. True or false: A diameter of a 22AWG twisted-pair cable is smaller than a 26AWG twisted pair cable? Explain… (Min. word count: 10) The answer would be false because due to being bigger in the numbers of AWG the diameter of the cable would be much smaller 3. In which frequency bands

the well-trained technicians. This would allow the the process of assembling a wiring loom takes less time and more technicians can be trained through this method without affecting the final product’s quality. Thirdly, 1,200 and 2,000 electrical cables are not colour coded which can be very confusing for the technicians. The company should add colour coded in the operating system to make it more effiecincy Another fuction which is currently causing problem for the manufacturing/operations stage

different types of cables available for PLCs depending on the role they will be playing, and under what conditions. Twisted-pair cabling consists of two independently insulated wires twisted around each other. By twisting the two wires together you help to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic induction, allowing for a more reliable signal without the use of shielding. https://www.webopedia.com/TERM/T/twisted_pair_cable.html Coaxial cables fulfil a similar role twisted-pair cables but consist of a center

Unit 6 Assignment 1: Cable Testers In almost every application in dealing with cable installations, cable testing is a must. Some methods of testing cables include testing for attenuation, continuity testers, DC Resistance, a wire mapper and cable length. In all cable types- copper or fiber, 10BASE-T or 100BASEFX, the standards are constantly being changed and developed into a new standard for all future technologies. When testing cable, you can guarantee that the users will be satisfied when all
