Cables

Cables are collections of wires, alternatively referred to as a cord, connector, or plug. They are one or more wires covered in a plastic covering that allows for the transmission of power or data between devices. The earliest use of recognizable electrical cable was the early commercialized telegraph lines. These were iron-made and tedious to produce and install cabling.
