Anymore dumb noob questions op? Want to know the difference between a router and a switch? What a patch cable is? Ask away.

i dont understand why cables come in twisted pairs if that's not even practical for real use is it just a manufacturing thing?

hobbesmaster posted:UTP is certainly cheaper than STP, STP does help out a lot when you have EMI problems i thought stp is actually worse unless both ends are properly grounded, which is unlikely, so the shielding actually adds interference and makes things worse most of the time?

unless you really really need S(c)TP you should basically always just use UTP and if you have to have S(cTP) strongly consider whether or not you wouldn't be better off w/ fiber

A Wheezy Steampunk posted:i thought stp is actually worse unless both ends are properly grounded, which is unlikely, so the shielding actually adds interference and makes things worse most of the time? well yes if you don't ground it you have a floating antenna Captain Foo posted:unless you really really need S(c)TP you should basically always just use UTP and if you have to have S(cTP) strongly consider whether or not you wouldn't be better off w/ fiber yeah fiber with zero possibility of EMI problems is of course the best bet. i've never been involved in infrastructure decisions like that so i have no idea what it costs or how practical the grounding stuff is for normal networking. we use STP for an industrial embedded device but of course we control both ends of that and its supposed to go into bad environments, i definitely agree its pretty niche

also remember to get the right kind of plugs for solid core wire vs stranded wire
