Testing Challenges for 10 Gb/S Ethernet Over Twisted-Pair Cabling: New Installation and Testing Guidelines Help Combat Alien Crosstalk (AXTalk)

Tags:
ethernet

Overview The transmission capabilities of a cabling link cannot be defined in isolation. The transmitter encodes the digital information, generates the electrical signals to be transmitted and sends these signals on the cabling link. The physical link must be able to transmit the signal from the transmitter to the receiver over the desired distance and deliver the signal quality at its end, the input of the receiver. The receiver must also meet a set of performance parameters such that a signal arriving over the link meets the specs, the receiver can successfully perform its task. Transmitter requirements, signal encoding, receiver capabilities and link transmission characteristics must be studied and considered as an integrated system.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Wireless everything

We can create complex digital signals that occupy a broad swath of frequency space and still filter them out at the receiver. This column was typed on an Apple G4 laptop and transmitted to silicon.com via a wireless LAN using a spread spectrum signal.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: The right technology for the right job

This creates a dynamic echo environment where the transmitted signal is further corrupted. They radiate energy from high-speed data signals which becomes a source of interference for wireless services including broadcast radio as well as emergency...

RFID gets skin-deep alternative

The signal is transmitted when the carrier touches the receiver. Unlike RFID, however, Skinplex uses the skin to transmit the signal and an identifier carried on a person. Like RFID, Skinplex works by reading a unique identifier remotely using an...

Wireless power has techies beaming

The charger sends power to the gadget using magnetic induction, which is the ability to change a magnetic field to produce an electrical current. While the singer uses sound waves to transmit energy to the glass, WiTricity chargers use coupled...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Hearing Morse Code?

The chemistry is a bit complex as is the electrical/mechanical conversion and can include several signals at once 'heterodyning or interfering' to give you a clear tone. About an hour ago a lady from Belgium emailed me saying she was worried about...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
