Coaxial Cable

Most people now are quite familiar with what coaxial cables are, as they are used in almost every home for cable television connections. These data cables are also popular in local area networks (LAN) because they are highly resistant to signal interference, which also gives coax cables the ability to support longer cable lengths between two devices.

The biggest advantage of twisted cables is in installation, as it is often thinner than coaxial cables and two conductors are twisted together. However, because they are thinner, they can not support very long runs. These tightly twisted designs cost less than coaxial cables and provide high data transmission rates. They connect with the RJ45 connector, which looks similar to a telephone jack but is designed for twisted pair pins.

In the end, twisted pair cabling is better suited when cost and installation are an issue and if EMI and crosstalk are not too much of a problem. But for coaxial cable, it supports greater cable lengths, and can be shielded in a variety of ways — with a foil shield on each conductor, a foil or braid inside the jacket or a combination of individual conductor and jacket shielding.



Thankyou buddy.....

\underline{\bold{Twisted\:Pair\:Cable}}

This cable is mostly used in local telephone communication for short distance data transmission.

It is made up of copper and two wires are twisted .

\underline{\bold{Coaxial\:Cable}}

The coaxial cable includes two channels to carry the signal surrounded by another channel inner channel is possible for the receiving , incoming signals where is the outer channel works as a ground.
