Cat 5(RJ45) supports 100 megabit Ethernet and ATM networking. Cat 5 specifications
also support gigabit (1000 Mb) Ethernet
Cat 5e (RJ45) is similar to Cat 5 but provides better EMI protection. It supports 100
megabit and gigabit Ethernet.
Cat 6(RJ45) supports 10 Gbps Ethernet and high-bandwidth, broadband communications.
Cat 6 cables often include a solid plastic core that keeps the twisted pairs separate and prevents
the cable from being bent too tightly.
Cat 6a(RJ45) is designed to provide better protection against EMI and crosstalk than Cat 6
cabling. Cat 6a provides better performance than Cat 6, especially when used with 10 Gbps
Ethernet.
RJ11 • Has 4 connectors
• Supports up to 2 pairs of wires
• Uses a locking tab to keep the connector secure in an outlet
• Used primarily for telephone wiring

RJ45 • Has 8 connectors
• Supports up to 4 pairs of wires
• Uses a locking tab to keep the connector secure in an outlet
• Used for Ethernet and some token ring connections
Coaxial Cable cable is an older technology that is usually implemented with a bus
topology. It is not suitable for ring or star topologies, because the ends of the cable must be
terminated. It is composed of two conductors that share a common axis within a single cable
Coaxial Cable Advantages • Highly resistant to EMI (electromagnetic interference)
• Highly resistant to physical damage
Coaxial Cable Disadvantages • More expensive than UTP
• Inflexible construction (more difficult to install)
• Unsupported by newer networking standards

Inner conductor( coaxial cable is built with) carries data signals. It is made of copper or
copper coated with tin.
Mesh Conductor ( coaxial cable is built with) conductor is a second physical channel that
also grounds the cable. It is made of aluminum or copper coated tin
Insulator (coaxial cable is built with) surrounds the inner conductor and keeps the signal
separated from the mesh conductor. It is made of PVC plastic.
Mesh( coaxial cable is built with) that surrounds the insulator and grounds the cable. It is
made of aluminum or copper coated tin.
Cable encasement( coaxial cable is built with) surrounds and protects the wire. It is made
of PVC plastic.
RG 58 Uses 10Base2 Ethernet networking (also called Thinnet) Resistance rate; 50ohms
RG 59 Uses Cable TV and cable networking Resistance rate; 75ohms

Solutions 100% Solved
RG 6 Uses Cable TV, satellite TV, and cable networking
RG-6 has less signal loss than RG-59 and is a better choice for networking applications,
especially when longer distances (over a few feet) are involved.
Resistance rating; 75ohms
RG 8 Uses 10Base5 Ethernet networking (also called Thicknet) Resistance rate; 50ohms
F Type • Twisted onto the cable
