Study Notes
Coaxial Cables
- The foil shield in miniature coaxial cables serves a purpose
- RG-59 coaxial cables are inexpensive, flexible, and suitable for shorter run lengths
- RG-11 coaxial cables have a higher cost than RG-59 due to their main advantage
- RG-6 coaxial cables are often used in the distribution of video signals in commercial buildings and CATV applications
- CATV coaxial cables differ from RG-6 and RG-11 cables in that they are designed for specific uses
- Miniature coaxial cables are distinct from RG-11 and RG-6 cables in their design and application
Twisted-Pair Cabling
- 'TP' in twisted-pair cabling types stands for twisted pair
- 'SF' in twisted-pair cabling types represents shielded foil
- The second wire in the 4th pair is colored blue according to the Twisted-Pair Wiring Color-Code Chart
- 'F/UTP' cable sheath type indicates foil-braided shielding
- 'S/FTP' cabling features an overall screen protection provided by the braided shield
- There are 25 color combinations possible using the 25-pair color code for twisted-pair cabling
Fiber Termination
- If the red light is illuminated after terminating the fiber, seek assistance
- Conduit fill refers to the percentage of a conduit's cross-sectional area occupied by all the cables
- Before sliding the boot up the back of the connector until it reaches the cam, the fiber is cleaned and prepared
- The outer shroud is installed to provide additional protection and support
- It is crucial to consider future cable installations when designing a conduit run to allow for scalability
- If the green light is illuminated after terminating the fiber, the process is successful
