Coaxial Cable
advantages&disadvantages
Advantages:
- lower error rates
- Greater spacing between amplifiers coaxial cable
- reduces noise and crosstalk, which means amplifiers can be spaced farther apart than with twisted pair.
Disadvantages:
- more expensive to install compare to twisted pair cable.
- the thicker the cable, the more difficult to work with.
Definition:
Coaxial cable is the kind of copper cable used by cable TV companies between the community antenna and user homes and businesses.
A strong thick rope, usually of twisted hemp or steel wire.
Definition:
- A twisted pair cable is a type of cable made by putting two separate insulated wires together in a twisted pattern and running them parallel to each other.
Advantages:
- less suceptible to electrical interference caused by nearby equipment or wires.
Disadvantages:
- STP is more difficult to connect to a terminating block.
Types:
- UTP , F/UTP F/FTP, SF/UTP S/FTP

Advantages:
- system performance
greatly increased bandwidth and capacity
- less restrictive in harsh environments
- overall system economy
- Fiber optic cables are much thinner and lighter than metal wires.
Disadvantages:
- fiber optic component are expensive
- the lack of standardization in the industry has also limited the acceptance of fiber optics.
