To Ensure the Best Performance: I'd Like My Cabling System Optimized, Please

Overview All of the telecommunications standards referencing balanced cabling specify nominal impedance. Furthermore, these standards form the basis upon which equipment manufacturers design their products. From a system performance perspective, it makes better design sense to optimize system performance to 100 ohms rather than tune to some other component-specific nominal value. After all, the cabling system should be engineered to best support the networking equipment it is connected to. The latest industry buzz centers around “tuned system performance”. It is important to understand that some “tuned systems” or impedance matching claims may be based on an arbitrary component value.
