Home Networking providing you with the capability to distribute outside services and entertainment to any part of your home (such as: cable television, DSS, DVD players,
telephone, DSL, Internet, etc.) Physical media Twisted pair - Wire is twisted to minimize crosstalk interference. It may be shielded or unshielded.
UTP-Unshielded Twisted Pair. Normally UTP contains 8 wires or 4 pair. 100 meter
maximum length. 4-100 Mbps speed.
STP-Shielded twisted pair. 100 meter maximum length. 16-155 Mbps speed. Lower
electrical interference than UTP.
Coaxial - Two conductors separated by insulation such as TV 75 ohm cable. Maximum length of 185 to 500 meters.
Thinnet - Thinnet uses a British Naval Connector (BNC) on each end. Thinnet is part
of the RG-58 family of cable*. Maximum cable length is 185 meters. Transmission speed is 10Mbps. Thinnet cable should have 50 ohms impedance and its terminator
has 50 ohms impedance. A T or barrel connector has no impedance.
Thicknet - Half inch rigid cable. Maximum cable length is 500 meters. Transmission
speed is 10Mbps. Expensive and is not commonly used. (RG-11 or RG-8). A vampire tap or piercing tap is used with a transceiver attached to connect computers to the
cable. 100 connections may be made. The computer has an attachment unit interface (AUI) on its network card which is a 15 pin DB-15 connector. The computer is
connected to the transceiver at the cable from its AUI on its network card using a drop cable.
Coax cable types:
*Only these are part of the IEEE specification for ethernet networks. Fiber-optic
- Data is transmitted using light rather than electrons. Usually there are two fibers, one for each direction. Cable length of 2 Kilometers. Speed from 100Mbps to 2Gbps. This is
the most expensive and most difficult to install, but is not subject to interference. Two types of cables are:
Single mode cables for use with lasers.
Multimode cables for use with Light Emitting Diode (LED) drivers.
