Analog and digital signals Transmission impairment Data rate limits Guided and unguided media Structured cabling
Frequency
is the rate of change with respect to time. Change in a short span of time means high frequency. Change over a long span of time means low frequency. a signal does not change at all, its frequency is zero. If a signal changes instantaneously, its frequency is infinite. describes the position of the waveform relative to time zero.

The bandwidth is a property of a medium: It is the difference between the highest and the lowest frequencies that the medium can satisfactorily pass. For CS: BW implies information carrying capacity in bits per sec

Cat 1. applies to traditional UTP telephone cabling, which is designed to carry voice but not data. Cat 2. certifies UTP cabling for BW up to 4Mbps Cat 3. certifies UTP cabling for BW up to 10Mbps Cat 4. certifies UTP cabling for BW up to 16Mbps Cat 5. certifies UTP cabling for BW up to 100Mbps Cat 6. certifies UTP cabling for BW up to 1Gbps

First, the shielding layers must be properly grounded in order to minimize signal degradation. If there is a difference in ground potential at different parts of the network, perhaps because problems exist with the ground system, or different areas are fed from different power sources, the shields will conduct these ground differences. These currents are called ground loops. Ground loops can become sources of interference, and they can even become shock hazards. Second, care must be taken while pulling the cable not to flex the cable so as to bunch or cut the shield. If it is damaged, it may subject the cable pairs to increased interference. Third, STP is more expensive than UTP due to the extra shielding. Fourth, STP is less flexible than UTP because of the shielding and is more difficult to install. Finally, extra time is required to ground each end of every cable. STP requires that the ground wire be attached to the metallic band around every RJ-45 connector. Patch panels, hubs and other appliances make contact with this band and short it to ground. This process is very time consuming and thus translates to increased labor costs.

Higher initial cost than copper Fiber can be less forgiving of abuse than copper cable Fiber connectors are less forgiving of abuse than copper connectors It takes a higher level of training and skill to terminate fiber The installation tools and meters are still more expensive

A structured cabling system is a complete system of cabling and associated hardware, which provides a comprehensive telecommunications infrastructure. The structured cabling system begins at the point where the service provider (SP) terminates. For example, in a telephone system installation, the SP furnishes one or more service lines (per customer requirements). The SP connects the service lines at the point of demarcation.

This point is the point of demarcation (demarc) or Network Interface Device (NID).

Entrance Facility
Service Provider
The entrance facility is the point where outside cabling and services interface with backbone cabling. (The electrical equivalent would be the meter socket/main disconnect switch.)
Equipment Room
The equipment room is the area of the building where incoming cabling interfaces with electronic equipment. It is also the main cross-connect (MC) to the backbone cabling. (The electrical equivalent would be the Main Distribution Panel.)
Telecommunications Room
Telecommunications Room is the area within a building that houses telecommunications/networking equipment, as well as the crossconnection (patch panels) between backbone and horizontal cabling. I.e. Horizontal Cross-connect (HC) (The electrical equivalent would be the circuit breaker panel.)
Backbone
The function of the backbone cabling is to provide interconnections between telecommunications closets, equipment rooms, and entrance facilities in the telecommunications cabling system structure. Backbone cabling consists of the backbone cables, intermediate and main crossconnects, mechanical terminations, and patch cords or jumpers used for backbone-to-backbone cross-connection. Backbone cabling also includes cabling between buildings.(The electrical equivalent would be electrical feeders.)
Horizontal
Horizontal consists of the pathway and cabling that extends between the Telecommunications Room and the Work Area. (The electrical equivalent would be a branch circuit.)
Work Area
Work Area is where personal computers, telephones, printers, etc are located. It also includes equipment cords that connect the device to the horizontal cable.
