This type of network communication media

There are 4 basic types of computer networks communication media: coaxial cable, twisted-pair, fiber optic and wireless (wireless). Coaxial cables and twisted-pair cable is the construction with copper-based media (copper-based), while optical fiber made of glass or plastic, and wireless technology uses radio frequency and microwave as the media.Here are definitions of basic types of computer networks communication media:
• coaxial cable used in network environments with a high level of signal interference, the maximum capacity of 10 Mbps, and is quite difficult to install. Currently, the network with coaxial cable has been rarely used.
• Fiber optic is the choice for demanding high-speed LAN, also commonly used as a WAN connection or connections between buildings that require a guaranteed level of data security. Fiber-optic cable using light as a medium of instruction signals, so immune to interference Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
• Wireless Media (wireless) has a flexibility that can not be met by cable-based media, and now very commonly used in public areas.
• Twisted-pair is the most popular types of media today, and can work on all types of existing networks. As the name implies, this cable is comprised of at least two mutually twisted copper rods to each other as in the DNA molecule. Require data transmission cable (2 pairs); pair to pair to send and receive data.
There are two variations of twisted-pair cables: Shielded Twisted-Pair (STP) and (UTP) Unshielded Twisted-Pair. Both variations are standardized by the Telecommunications Industry Association and Electronic Industries Alliance (TIA / EIA) through TIA/EIA-568 standard that defines a standard structured cabling for use in the industrial world (568A) and non-industrial (568B). TIA/EIA-568 standards specify the types of cables that can be used for a variety of applications, types of connectors, and minimum and maximum length allowed for each cable.
