Network Cabling is used to connect and transfer data between computers and a network. There are different types of network cable, and the appropriate type to use will depend on the structure of your network.

The most commonly used types of network cable are the twisted pair, coaxial, Ethernet and fibre optic.

Coaxial Cable, or coax, is another common type of cable used for Network Cabling. It has a copper conductor in its center and a plastic coating serves as an insulator between the center conductor and a metal shield. The cable is then covered with a coating. The coating may be thin or thick, the thicker coating which less pliable provides extra protection.

Ethernet cable is used in Network Cabling to connect a computer network made up of two or more computers. This type of network cabling eliminates the need for network switches or routers. The cable also allows the computers to be connected using their network adaptors, such as the network interface card (NIC).

Fibre Optic Network Cabling is used for networks that span large distances. As a result, this type of network cabling has several layers of protective coating. It also transmits light as opposed to electrical signals like other cables. This makes it an ideal cable for network environments that are exposed to large amounts of electrical interference. It also transmits information at high speeds and is therefore used in large network environments like those used by big businesses.
