Study Notes
- Copper cabling is the foundation of Ethernet networks, used for home and business networks.
- Twisted pair Ethernet cables have four pairs of wires, each transmitting equal and opposite signals to reduce interference.
- Different pairs have different twist rates for signal reconstruction.
- Different categories of twisted pair cables, such as 5e, 6, 6A, 7, and 8, support various Ethernet standards and distances.
- Coaxial cables, consisting of a single wire conductor, are used for cable modem connectivity and television.
- Twinax cable, with two separate conductors, is used for 10 gigabit Ethernet over copper with SFP transceivers and has a limited distance.
- International ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA/ANSI standards dictate how to install and use twisted pair and copper cable connections.
- T568A and T568B standards dictate cable color assignments for Ethernet connections, with some differences in pair color assignments.
- Using the same standard on both ends of the cable is important to ensure proper functioning.
- T568A and T568B standards are not related to Ethernet crossover cables, which have different color assignments defined in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
- The text provides colors for T568A and T568B standards and suggests looking closely at the wires' colors on an Ethernet cable to determine its standard.
