wires twisted together with no electromagnetic shielding around them. Shielded Twisted-Pair - type of twisted pair cable in which the pairs are enclosed in outer braided shield. Fiber-Optic Cable - cable containing one or more optical fibers. Dark Fiber - unused fiber; a fiber containing on or more optical fibers. Coaxial Cable - single conductor surrounded by insulation and a layer of shielding so the two conductors share a single axis. Plenum - air handling space between walls, under

3 factors that could affect splicing performance: Cleaving is a major factor in splicing fiber optic cables, and it is necessary to use a good cleaver to do this with. Cleanliness is another factor that will affect splicing performance; the glass core must be cleaned prior to putting it in the connector because dust will play a factor in the performance of the splice. And using different brand of fiber cables can play a major factor in the overall performance of the splice. It can make it difficult

Define the following terms: 1. Horizontal Cable : A type of inside cable designed for horizontal use in non-plenum areas. While horizontal cable must be fire retardant, the National Electrical Code (NEC) specifications are not as demanding as those governing the use of plenum cable or riser cable. See also NEC, plenum, plenum cable, and riser cable. 2. Backbone Cable : Backbone cabling is the inter-building and intra-building cable connections in structured cabling between entrance facilities
