Assorted Cables For Various Cable Caddies

By Neva Tweedie


Different kinds of cables may be used and all are possible to mount on cable caddies. They most commonly are employed by computers together with networks corresponding to them. Straight through cables mainly get applied in inter-serial connections. Before undertaking networking, this type was one of the most preferred methods for connecting between different computers. However, it still is appropriated on different machines for providing console connection.

The Optical as well as Toslink cables are a different mode of undertaking transmission of audio down fiber optic cables. These are employed mainly by sound systems together with emerging laptop brands. USB cables indeed are important as new printing standard, having now found relevance in diverse applications, which include play-stations, phones and cameras. It is in fact possible to conduct LAN connections of USB to USB.

At present two versions are in operation. They include USB1 transmitting at 12 MBps speed of transfer and USB2, which works at 480MBps. Internal PC cables connect to other devices in computers to the main board, also known as motherboard. The slowest rate of connection in current application is of floppy and IDE cables. Do find a fitting wire caddy for these on the Web.

Hard drive connection is provided by IDE. Cables for serial ATA (SATA) at present have overtaken IDEs as prime methods for connecting between hard drive to the main board. Cables for SCSI are generally applied exclusively in servers for performing SCSI hard drive connectivity. Cat5e and Cat6e are the two known network cable standards.

The two standards have dual formats; crossed and straight through (standard). Straight through is applied in general networks all through companies for connecting computers to the network wall sockets. It also connects diverse computers from network patch panels all the way to network switches (hubs). Make sure that you choose an ideal cable caddy.

Smaller networks such as ones involving two computing devices make use of cross over cable for connecting between two computers with network cards. The cards allow for communication to be conducted between the computers. Cat5e and Cat6e are presumed to have speeds of 100MBps and 1000MBps, respectively.

Even though Cat5e can work at 1000MBps, in real sense however, it is unshielded sufficiently to function at these speeds. Modem as well as ADSL cables supply connectivity between router modems and telephone. RJ11, as is known by American telephone standard designates the socket which connects router to its modem. Get appropriate cable caddies on the internet for these as well.
