Factors for Choosing Cable for Network System
• Bandwidth – Bandwidth represents the amount of information that can be transferred at one time. Hence, greater the Cable’s bandwidth, faster the information transferred through it.
• Signal attenuation– The capability of the Cable to transfer information up to specific distances without any distortion. A Cable with greater signal attenuation helps the Cable to transfer information without requiring any equipment to boost electric signal.
• Electromagnetic Interference –EMI from equipment such as fluorescent lights, photocopiers, etc. may disrupt transmission across networks. Some Cables that can easily withstand EMI are helpful in such situation.
• Expansion Capabilities -The expansion capability of any network is dependent on the ease of installation of Cable and its need for additional equipment.
• Cost – The cost that the Cables for building a network system is very important point to consider.
