  2. Coaxial cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coaxial_cable

    Coaxial cable, or coax (pronounced / ˈkoʊ.æks /), is a type of electrical cable consisting of an inner conductor surrounded by a concentric conducting shield, with the two separated by a dielectric (insulating material); many coaxial cables also have a protective outer sheath or jacket. The term coaxial refers to the inner conductor and the ...

  3. RG-6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RG-6

    RG-6 coaxial cable for television signals. RG-6 coaxial cable. RG-6/U is a common type of coaxial cable used in a wide variety of residential and commercial applications. An RG-6/U coaxial cable has a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms. The term, RG-6, is generic and is applied to a wide variety of cable designs, which differ from one another ...

  4. Loading coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_coil

    A loading coil or load coil is an inductor that is inserted into an electronic circuit to increase its inductance. The term originated in the 19th century for inductors used to prevent signal distortion in long-distance telegraph transmission cables. The term is also used for inductors in radio antennas, or between the antenna and its feedline ...

  5. Twin-lead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin-lead

    Twin-lead. Twin lead cable is a two-conductor flat cable used as a balanced transmission line to carry radio frequency (RF) signals. It is constructed of two, stranded copper wires, or solid copper-clad steel wires. The wires are held a fixed distance apart by a plastic ribbon that is a good insulator at radio frequencies (usually polyethylene).

  6. RG-58 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RG-58

    RG-58/U is a type of coaxial cable often used for low-power signal and RF connections. The cable has a characteristic impedance of either 50 or 52 Ω. "RG" was originally a unit indicator for bulk RF cable in the U.S. military's Joint Electronics Type Designation System. There are several versions covering the differences in core material ...

  7. RG-59 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RG-59

    RG-59/U is a specific type of coaxial cable, often used for low-power video and RF signal connections. The cable has a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms, and a capacitance of around 20pF/ft (60pF/m). [1] The 75 ohm impedance matches a dipole antenna in free space. RG (for radio guide) was originally a unit indicator for bulk radio frequency ...

  8. Eye pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_pattern

    In telecommunications, an eye pattern, also known as an eye diagram, is an oscilloscope display in which a digital signal from a receiver is repetitively sampled and applied to the vertical input (y-axis), while the data rate is used to trigger the horizontal sweep (x-axis). It is so called because, for several types of coding, the pattern ...

  9. Transmission medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_medium

    Coaxial cable, or coax (pronounced / ˈ k oʊ. æ k s /) is a type of electrical cable that has an inner conductor surrounded by a tubular insulating layer, surrounded by a tubular conducting shield. Many coaxial cables also have an insulating outer sheath or jacket. The term coaxial comes from the inner conductor and the outer shield sharing a ...
