Study Notes
- Protective clothing and equipment must be worn during network cable installation.
- Safety precautions must be observed when using a ladder for installation.
- Safety rules must be followed when working with copper and fiber-optic cables.
- Fiber-optic cables can be hazardous.
- Three main types of network cables: coaxial, twisted-pair, and fiber-optic.
- Twisted-pair cable is a type of copper cabling with two basic types: UTP and STP.
- Category rating is based on the number of wires and twists in those wires.
- Coaxial cable has four types: Thicknet, Thinnet, RG-59, and RG-6.
- Fiber-optic cable is useful because it is not affected by EMI or RFI, has a greater bandwidth, and is faster than copper cables.
- Twisted-pair cables are used for telephone communications and most Ethernet networks.
