Coaxial Copper Cable

The first networks to be designed were cabled with Coaxial cable.    

• It has two wires like twisted pair but the design with an inner conductor and outer braid conductor enable it to have a higher Bandwidth and be capable of higher data rates.    

• Coaxial cable (or "coax") is the most common cable used for transmitting video signals.    

• The name "coaxial" refers to the common axis of the two conductors
