RJ45의 역사: 틀린 신원의 예

Our industry commonly uses the term “RJ45” to refer to the modular 8-position, 8-contact (8P8C) interface deployed for Ethernet over copper twisted-pair network cabling despite it pretty much being a case of mistaken identity.

But since the RJ45 name has stuck, we thought maybe we’d take a closer look at the history of this nomenclature and why to this day, it remains the de facto interface for twisted-pair Ethernet applications.

케이블 테스트 101: 내 손실 예산은 무엇입니까?

While you might hear your CFO grumbling about staying under budget from a dollar perspective, staying under your loss budget from a fiber perspective has a much bigger impact on your network performance – which ultimately impacts your bottom line by avoiding downtime.

But how exactly is your loss budget defined and how do you ensure you don’t exceed it?

Troubleshooting Fiber on the Cheap

If you troubleshoot fiber on a regular basis, you probably have an array of tools to help you do the job, including an Optical Time Domain Reflectometer.  But we often get questions from customers who don’t troubleshoot fiber enough to justify such an expensive tool.

The Poet’s Guide to the Physics of Twisted Pair Cabling

I once took a class where the professor would explain concepts in two ways.  First, he would dive into the mathematics behind the idea, filling the whiteboard with equations and showing how they all related to one another.  He tagged this “for the engineers”.  Then, he would explain the concept again, but this time, with no math at all.  This he said, was “for the poets”.
