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. RG-58 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RG-58

   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 ...

5. 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 ...

6. 10BASE2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10BASE2

   10BASE2 cable end terminator. 10BASE2 (also known as cheapernet, [1] thin Ethernet, thinnet, and thinwire) is a variant of Ethernet that uses thin coaxial cable terminated with BNC connectors to build a local area network. During the mid to late 1980s, this was the dominant 10 Mbit/s Ethernet standard. The use of twisted pair networks competed ...

7. F connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_connector

   The F connector (also F-type connector) is a coaxial RF connector commonly used for "over the air" terrestrial television, cable television and universally for satellite television and cable modems, usually with RG-6/U cable or with RG-59/U cable. The F connector was invented by Eric E. Winston in the early 1950s while working for Jerrold ...
