Today’s premier copper-based twisted pair (TP) cabling systems provide data transmission rates up to 10 gigabits/second and are frequently used to provide power and signal over the same cable. To meet market demands for performance, safety, and lower environmental cost, cable technology is evolving quickly. This session will provide a synopsis of this cable technology for premises copper data communications cable.
