Criss-Cross Puzzle

Directions: Complete the criss-cross puzzle and familiarize yourself of the cables being
described. Write your answer in a clean sheet of paper.
CABLES

Across
1. each pair of wires is wrapped in metallic foil
3. one or more optical fibers enclosed in a sheath or jacket
5. used to connect two devices directly
6. cable that has two or four pairs of wires
7. the standard cable used for almost all purposes
Down
1. cable that has a very thin core
2. cable that has a thicker core
4. used for telephone communications and Ethernet networks
5. copper-cored cable
QUIZ # 1

1. It is a type of copper cabling that is used for telephone


communications and most Ethernet networks. A pair of wires
form a circuit that transmits data.
2. What are the two basic types of twisted-pair cables?
3. It is the cable that has two or four pairs of wires. This type of
cable relies solely on the cancellation effect produced by the
twisted-wire pairs that limits signal degradation caused by
electromagnetic interface and radio frequency interference.
4. It is a cable that each pair of wire is wrapped in metallic foil shield
the wires from noise. Four pairs of wires are then wrapped in an
overall metallic braid or foil.
5. It is a copper-cored cable surrounded by a heavy shielding.
6. It is a coaxial cable used in networks operating at 10 Mbps, with a
maximum length of 500 meters.
7. It is a coaxial cable used in networks operating at 10 Mbps, with a
maximum length of 185 meters.
8. It is most commonly used for cable television in the U.S.
9. It has one or more optical enclosed in a sheath or jacket. Because
it is made of glass, fiber-optic cable is not affected by EMI or RFI.
10. What are the two types of glass fiber-optic RFI?
