Research: Search on the Internet or in the online Library for two sources that explain various kinds of network cabling. Ensure that the sources are up to date and appropriate for master’s level work. This part of the assignment must rely on source material, not personal experience.
- Coaxial cables
- Twisted pair cables (including various types)
- Fiber optics
Write: In 250–300 words, provide a paragraph about each kind of cable on the above list. Include a description of each, relative cost, and anything else that is important in making a final decision about cabling. In a fourth paragraph, indicate which kind(s) of cables would be your choice for this project, considering the amount of cabling you might need to meet the topologies chosen, etc.
Do not use lists or tables; use only paragraphing. Do not quote from your sources; write entirely in your own words. Use APA 7th edition in-text citations to properly identify sources of your information, remembering that every paragraph in which you use information from a source needs citation, and any sentence with numbers/statistics needs citation. At the end of your assignment document, include full APA 7th edition reference entries.
