2. At the end of the lesson, student should
be able to:
Identify the various types of cables:
Twisted-Pair Cable
Coaxial
Fibre Optic
3. Twisted Pair Cable
Description:
Consists of two strands of
insulated copper wire,
twisted around each other.
Multiple twisted can be
combined into a single cable.
Can reduces interference from
electrical field.
How signal pass through:
Transmit data by means
electrical signal
4. Coaxial Cable
Description:
Consists of a single
copper wire surrounded
by at least three layer
an insulating material,
braided wired, plastic
coating.
How signal pass through:
Transmit data by means
electrical signal
5. Fibre Optic
Description:
Consists of dozens or
hundreds of thin strands
of glass that use light to
transmit signal.
Each strand, call optical
fibre, is as thin as a human
hair.
How signal pass through:
Transmit data as pulses of
light through tiny tubes of
glass.
