In 1941, the US Navy used a smaller version of the threaded N connector, the Type BN (Baby N), as the UG-85/U, UG-86/U, UG-114/U and UG-115/U. . In 1943, the British introduced a ¼ inch 50 ohm coaxial cable, and companies immediately developed many connectors for it.
No hub is required as with 10BASE-T, so the hardware cost was minimal, and wiring was particularly easy since only a single wire run is needed, which could be sourced from the nearest computer. These characteristics made 10BASE2 ideal for a small network of two or three machines, perhaps in a home where easily concealed wiring was an advantage.
Left, a male RP-TNC connector on a WiFi 2.4GHz antenna. Right, a male TNC connector. Reverse-polarity TNC (RP-TNC, sometimes RTNC) is a variation of the TNC specification which reverses the polarity of the interface.
In both those instances the white wire should be identified as being hot, usually with black tape inside junction boxes. The neutral wire is identified by gray or white insulated wire, perhaps using stripes or markings. With lamp cord wire the ribbed wire is the neutral, and the smooth wire is the hot. NEC 2008 400.22(f) allows surface marking ...
The lead wire is a coated copper wire, a tinned copper wire or another electrically conductive wire used to connect two locations electrically. In electronics, a lead (/ ˈ l iː d /) or pin is an electrical connector consisting of a length of wire or a metal pad (surface-mount technology) that is designed to connect two locations electrically.
An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...
Twist-on wire connectors are not generally recommended for use with aluminum wire in the United States. [1] The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission disapproves wire nuts for aluminum wire; instead, special crimp connectors are called for, and as of 2011 the CPSC asserted qualified, second-preference approval of a certain kind of screw ...
The connector reliably carries signals at frequencies up to 100 MHz. [1] The coupling shell has a 5 / 8 inch 24 tpi UNEF standard thread. [4] The most popular cable plug and corresponding chassis-mount socket carry the old Signal Corps labels PL-259 (plug #259) and SO-239 (socket #239). [12]
