The most often used category-rated UTP cable for voice and data wiring from various outlets back to the service center or other distribution device in a residential application is______. (Objective 16-3)

The most often used UTP cable for voice and data wiring.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
Category 5e cable.
Explanation of Solution
The old telephone cable “quad wire” has been used previously to wire telephone jacks in residential applications which are stopped by ANSI/TIA/EIA 570-C instead they recommend using a four-pair UTP cable such as CAT 5e.
The CAT 5e is also called Category 5 Enhanced or Category 5e cable. It gives improved performance such as faster speed of transfer and thecapability to navigate distances without being obstructed by crosstalk. It generally consists of 24-gauge twisted pair wires that can support Gigabit networks at segment distances up to 100 m. It contains a bandwidth of 100 MHz and it can transmit or receive at 100 Mbps data speed.
Thus, the most often used UTP cable is Category 5e cable.

Implement a cross-sectional analysis based on a layered discretisation of the cross- section as required at the following. 1) Develop the implementation of an analysis to estimate the nonlinear response of the composite steel-concrete section, of the reinforced concrete section and of the steel section shown in following slides (using material nonlinear models provided in the support files). Provide the details of the numerical implementation with clear explanations of all steps. Hint: the implementation can be done in Excel. 2) Discuss how the 3 cross-sections (shown in the next slides) compare to each other in terms of embodied carbon under the condition that the cross-sections possess the same nominal moment capacity (i.e. the peak moment achieved in the moment-curvature diagram). The discussion should include at least 2 sets of the sections (each set contains one composite section, one reinforced concrete section and one…arrow_forwardConsider the following static route choice problem where 110 vehicles travel from point A to point B.
