About This Class

Good Day, This class is based on a very important topic of IT & Network industry is Network Cables .if you are related to technical field , even you are a student or working as a professional then You need to be very clear with Networking Cables. In this class we will learn about Optical fiber cable, coaxial cable and twisted pair Cables. Twisted pair cable having two types i.e. straight cable and cross cable. We will Make both straight and cross cable Practically Using Devices LAN Crimping tool, LAN tester & RJ 45 Connector.

Optical fiber cable & Coaxial Cable

A fiber-optic cable is known as an optical-fiber cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable, but containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable is used. Different types of cable are used for different applications, for example, long distance telecommunication, or providing a high-speed data connection between different parts of a building.
Coax, short for coaxial, is a type of cable used to transmit data, the internet, video and voice communications. A coax cable is made up of an aluminum and copper shield with an outer plastic jacket with the dielectric insulator helping to minimize signal loss.

Twisted Pair cable, Straight Cable and Cross Cable

Twisted-pair cable is a type of cabling that is used for telephone communications and most modern Ethernet networks. A pair of wires forms a circuit that can transmit data. The pairs are twisted to provide protection against crosstalk, the noise generated by adjacent pairs. We have two types of Cables Straight and cross cable.
Usually, straight through cables are primarily used for connecting unlike devices. And crossover cables are use for connecting unlike devices alike devices

Practical Making Straight Cable and Cross Cable

Conclusion:

Computers are useless unless they perform some service. Now that we've discussed some of the major components of Cables. A good understanding of the Networking cables will help you to understand about working on network easily. Now you understand that Network Cables are the reason you can communicate with people all over the world, and thus play a critical role in modern digital communications.

1. Introduction: Hello friends. In this class we are going to discuss about one of the most interesting topic, networking cables. The Internet is just load of computer physically connected using a lot of wires. And in our network industry we have a lot of wires including optical fiber cable, twisted pair cable, and coaxial cable. In this video, we will practically learn about how to make a straight cable, how to make a cross k well, using Lambda crimping tool and RJ45 connector also, we will learn how to test cable using land tester. Besides this, in this class, we will learn how these cables walks on Internet and how single mode fiber and multimode fiber will work. How coaxial cable transfer their data into telephony standard lines, as well as in television media. So happy to learn. Thank you so much. 2. Coaxial and optical fiber cable: Hello guys, welcome to our first class of networking cable. In this class, we are going to discuss about two important networking cables which are used to transfer data inland as well as in van. That cables are coaxial cable and optical fiber cables. First, we're going to start with coaxial cable. Basically, coaxial cable is used to transfer data over the Internet with the help of transmission signal. And it is used to transfer voice and video, both communication. Basically, coaxial cable is made up with the aluminum and copper. So this cable is basically used in the standard telephony lines, as well as any television media. On the other hand, if we talk about optical fiber cable, that cable is used for long distances data. If you want to send high performance daytime your networking technique, then you have to use optical fiber cable. And commonly it is used for all the telecommunication service. So let's discuss that coaxial cable first. If you want to check that detailed description, then you can see that diagram of ZL cable, coaxial cable. You can check you have seen that cable in television as well as in standard telephone line. Because when you connect your LED or television, then you can see there is a black cable on the backside in BNC connector. That cable is known as coaxial cable, and that black cable is the plastic jacket. And if you remove the plastic jacket, you will get one metallic shield. And in-between the metallic shield, you will get electrical insulator. But the main data transfer is send with the inner conductor. It looked like this. All the data transfer through inner conductor. But if you want to remove the cross stroke effect, then you need to shield this table with a dielectric insulator and metallic shield and plastic jacket. On the other hand, if we talk about optical fiber cable, optical fiber cable is the high performance data networking technique. If you want to transfer your data with the high-speed, then you can use optical fiber cable. If you want to see optical fiber cable, then I have that cable. This is called optical fiber cable. Now I have single mode, which is, which I have connected with my wifi modem. And my wifi modem is transferring Wi-Fi signal to all over the media. In optical fiber cable. Same, we have outer jacket and we have strength member would mean that basically this optical fiber cable is where the core and cladding technique, it is quoting same as coaxial cable, but that strength of this cable is core and cladding. It is a lightweight cable and it is sending data through transacting lights. So optical fiber cable is the fastest cable. It is also used in submitting. Also, if we talk about types of optical cable, then we have multimode and single mode. In multi-mode cable we have single transactions of light, which is sending that data. But in multi-ported we have multiple cables in between that. So basically if you want to transfer data over the Internet, you want to know that concept of internet. Then you can check submarine cables. Submarine cables are known as optical fiber cable and they are the fastest cable. So in our next class, we are going to discuss about that cable which is used within the premises that is twisted pair cable. So, thank you so much for this class. 3. Twister pair Cable: Hello friends, welcome again. In our cable lecture, in our last lecture, we have discussed about fiber optics cables, coaxial media. In this lecture we are going to discuss about twisted pair cable that is used to connect in intranet. Intranet means like you are going to connect to your on-premises and twisted pair. We have two types of cables, straight cable and Cross Cable. We need to understand the basic concept of street and cross cable. But besides this, we need to understand what is twisted pair cable. So this is the twisted pair cable and twisted pair cabling is a type of wiring in which two conductors off single circuits are twisted together. Why they are twisted together? It is the purpose of improving electromagnetic compatibility. You can say twisted pair cable is used as a balanced line. And we have to talk about straight cable as well as Cross Cable both. Okay? So let me start with my straight. So it is a first type of twisted pair cable. Straight cable is basically used to connect different network devices with each other. As we know, we have so many network devices, like we have computer, we have laptops, we have switches. Now for example, you want to connect to your PC with the switch, or your laptop with your switch. And switch wants to connect to the router. Now, if PC and switches are connected with each other than they both are different devices. For different devices connectivity, we use a straight cable. On the other hand, if we talk about Cross Cable, cross cable is used to connect the same devices with each other. For example, PC to PC, router to router and switch to switch. But there is one special case. Yes. There is one special case. If you want to connect to PC2 router, you have to use cross cable. Now. Now you can say that PC and routers are the different device than they should have connect with straight cable. But the land cut off PC and routers are almost same. So that's why PC2 router we have to use cross cable. Now, what does that color-coding used in this great evil? So now we have to discuss about straight cable color-coding. So if you check this table now in my next class, I will practically explain this, but we need to learn the theoretical concept also how this cable is made. So we have eight cables, including the four colors. I will write on my whiteboard. That is orange. But starting from orange and white and one cable is orange and one is orange white. And second is orange. Third is green, white. Fourth is blue. 50s. Blue, white, green, brown, white, and brown. These are the eight cables and why these are called, which should be a given because orange, white and orange are twisted with each other. Green, white, and green twisted with each other. Blue, white and blue twisted with each other and round white and brown twist with each other. I already told you for electromagnetic effect. Now, if you want to create a straight cable, then if you have used, on this side, I'm color-coding. And on the other hand, the second end of connector, you are using same color-coding. Orange, orange, green, white, blue, blue white, green, brown, white, and brown. Then this is not coding for straight cable, which is used to connect different devices with each other. On the other hand, cross cable is using the same color coding. On one side, like if you start from scratch, then same as the straight cable. You are going to start with orange white, orange green, white, blue, blue, white, green, brown, white, and brown. But in cross k, Well, we need to cross the cables like cross. Okay, so we have to use one simple formula, 1326. Like 1326, what is the meaning of 1326? If you replace your first cable with third, then there is a crossing between them. Third cable is on the first place, green white. And the first cable is on the third place. Orange, white. Same as if you replace a second with the 66 width setting. Second. That is green and orange, rest. All other cables remains the same. Blue will be on the same position. Blue, white, brown, white, and brown. This is not coding for cross cable. Now, on the other hand, we have straight cable as well as cross cable. And one more coding is also there, rollover cable. But rollover cable is not that twisted pair cables. Some people think that we have to change the coding for rollover cable. Rollover cable is used to configure the device. So these are the straight cable and Cross Cable codings. In our next video, we will practically make straight cable with the help of land crimping tool and with the RJ45 connectors. So thank you so much. 4. Practical Cross and Straight cable: Hello friends. Welcome to our practical Making class of cables. In today's lecture, we are going to discuss about how to create land cable, including straight and cross cable. In my last class, we have discussed about the theoretical concept of straight cable and cross cable, in which we are discussing about that straight cable is using same color-coding on both ends, but in cross cable you have to use 1326. So today I'm going to let you know about how to make this cable for making this table. First of all, we need a land crimping tool, which is used to cut that cable and it is used to peel the cable. After that. When we made that cable, we need a land tester. After in this land pesto. After making that table, we can test that cable like already. I haven't cable. So before going to start practical, I will show you the first cable that is already made by me. So in this case, we can test that k. But like if all the links are blinking, then it means all the cables are working. But if any cable link is missed, then we need to make the cable again. So I have Cat six cable because we have Cat5 cable, CAT five cable and categories six cable nowadays we are using characteristics. So first of all, what I will do, I will use the land crimping tool and I will cut this connector. Now, this is not usable again, it is not reusable. I have so many land crimping tools as well as so many RJ45 connector. So I can use RJ45 connector. So same as we have to first build this table. With the help of land. Two. I have to remove this gray part. This is the outer jacket off table. Now when you check this cable, you can check that there are four pairs of cables for pairs. Four pairs, one is orange or any white. One is blue, blue, white, one is brown, brown, white, and one is green and green white. So that's why it is called twisted pair cable. Now we have this white shield in between this, so I don't need it. I will cut this. After that. I will arrange the port. So I'm arranging the cables for RJ45 connector. So again, if you want to make straight gable than coding, you remember in my last video, I have told you about orange, white and orange. After that, green, white and blue, blue, white and green, brown, white and brown. So I'm using these cables. After that, I'm going to cut the part, some part of cables. Now I need RJ45 connector. Rj45 connector is used for land cables and RJ 11 is used for its standard telephony lines. I'm using this. You can check, I'm starting from my right side, left side. From the left side, I have to start orange bright orange, green, white blue, blue, white, green and brown, white brown. So I have too little bit tight this cable and now it is the time for crimping. This part is used to crimp. You will check there is a sound, tick. Tick sound will come. It means your cables are connected and your connector is John. On the other hand, same as I have to cut this. Again, I have to peel this. It is the same process that I have done. It is very easy. You just remove the outer part, you just remove the white part. And when you remove the white part, again, the same process. In the same process, what do you have to do? You have to rearrange the cables because have a coding and this color-coding, orange bright orange, green, white blue, blue, white green brown, white brown is given by ISO, International Organization for Standardization. If you want to make a straight cable, then both the codings will remain same. So I'm using orange, white, orange, green, white, blue, blue, white, green, and brown white wrong. So what I will do, again, I will cut the some part of cable. Again, I need RJ45 connector. Same as I have used the last one part. Another part, I'm adding this RJ45 connector and cables. Press this and after that, crimp this. Now they are connected. Now we have to check that these cables are working fine or not. So again, I'm using my cable tester. One part is in this second part is in this yes. Yes. You can check 12345678. All parts are blinking sometime it may be lose, but all the parts are blinking. If all the parts are blinking, it means your cable coding is good and it can be used to connect different devices. Now, I want to make cross cable. Now I have a straight cable. I want to use this cable as a cross cable. For cross cable, I'm going to remove the one connector only because on the one side you have to use same coding. I'm cutting this. Again. It is very easy. Again, remove the gray white jacket, outdoor jacket. Okay. So outer jacket is removed. And after that again, the same process we have to follow nothing different. But in cross cable, what you have to do, you have to change the coding also, because in straight gables, same parts, orange bright orange, green, white blue, blue white green brown, light brown was used. Now on this side we have to use 1326. What was the meaning of 201326? In our last video, we have discussed the meaning of 1326 is that first cable will be replaced with the third. Now, on the other side, I have used orange, bright orange, green, white, blue, blue, white green, and brown, white brown. Now I have two startswith. Third cable is green, white, green, orange white. After that, blue, blue, white. And instead of green, we have to put orange, brown, white grown. 1326 means first cable I have replaced the way the third and the second cable I have replaced with six. Now the coding is green white, the green, orange, white, blue, blue, white, orange and brown, white, brown. Again, I have to cut this. I need again RJ45 connector. I have to put same process you have to follow. Now, you have to cut this and this. So now your cross k will is taught or now you can check here, green light green, orange white blue, blue white, orange brown, white brown. Now you want to check again with land land tester. You have to take this. Yes, you can check. One is blink with the third, and the third is blink with 1. Second is linked with sixth. One is blinking where third, second is blinking where the sixth. So it means my cross cable is ready. So these are the bolt cables which are used to connect the same devices and different devices with each other. Thank you so much.
