The plug and socket are something that we have used a million times in our lives. The plug and socket have been a historical discovery. Today we plug different types of electrical appliances in the socket easily without much risk. However, has it always been so simple and safe? No. In earlier times, people use to plug in electrical appliances with mere open-ended wires. Sometimes even with incompatible plugs! Today almost each country in the world uses its specific standards for plugs, sockets, and power cords. So how is the installation of electrical appliances in the sockets today with negligible risks? Answer is simple! Using Power Cords. Power cords are the line cable or mains cable. It is this cable, which bears the burden of temporarily connecting a portable electronic appliance with the main electrical supply line. It makes this possible by the attached pair of connecting couplers on its either ends. These connector power cords are detachable from the mains supply line...

The most important equipment used on wired computer networks is an ethernet cable. The use of Ethernet cable is for connecting computers, routers, switches in a local area network. It looks like a phone cable but has more wires and is larger. These cables are physically attached they need to have certain peculiarities. The cables’ physical characteristics alter or modify in accordance of the requirements. The purpose of the cable’s usability gave birth to different categories. Different type of  network LAN cables  design creation is to ensure its performance of certain tasks in a particular situation. Therefore, which type of ethernet cable suits the best – is a common headache for us. Why do these cables contain twisted pair of wires? Sometimes these wires have a cover, sometimes they do not. Why so? The cable designs vary in length, range, intensity, and ability in transmitting network signals. The available standard  ethernet cables  in the market are the c...

To build a network and to bring a device into a network, one needs to connect the portable device with the central processing unit (CPU). The USB cables, optical fibres and other Networking cables are worthless of a port is not already mounted on the unit. No cable can connect a port less device with the central unit or the port less unit with the device! So the question that arises is, what lets the portable devices like keyboards, pointers, digital camera connect with the CPU using Ethernet cables, USB Cables or optical fibers? Keystone Jack  is the magic port which aids this functionality. Every connecting device has a female unit installed in it and the cables have the male chords attached on their ends called “keystone plugs”. They mate and the devices are connected where you want it to get connected. Keystone Jacks are the most important units in networking. They are designed to get affixed into keystone plates, keystone boxes and patch panels. They have a standard ...

There are several different gold plating thicknesses available on the mark...

The source and supply of electrical energy drive the world of electrical appliances. And every human activity is dependent on these appliances. Be it checking emails on the computer or managing a military network. There are countless use cases as such. And where do we connect these appliances? To the power supply units. The above-mentioned activities run through a computer network. Just like the laptops need power cable adapters, the desktops need power cords. Also, they operate in a similar way as plug adapters do. Which is, connecting the appliance to electrical supply lines. Look at Power Cords closely and you’ll observe two end points. One, connected to the wall socket; known as plug. And the other one; which connects the electrical appliance to power cord. Often known as the coupler. IEC is a non-profit and non-govt organization. They have set specific standards for couplers which connect the power cord to the electrical appliances. The connecting couplers are available in...

The human brain is connected with different organs like eyes, nose, ears, etc. through neurons. As the organs sense different activities, the message is further carried to the brain while the brain interprets these impulses and acts accordingly. The computer network in this 21st century with a high level of increased usage, functions very similar to the human body. The similarity persists in the ways it is networked. The brain is the central processing unit (CPU) of the human body and the network of neurons connects it with the different organs. It is quite astonishing to know how neurons create a network of impulses in the human body. But how does a computer network connect with the devices? It certainly does not create its network using neurons. So what creates a computer network? How are different devices plugged into the computers? The answer is using  Universal Serial Bus(USB) Cable, Fiber Optics Cable, Networking Cable . These are the connectors which are used for con...

How does today’s economy thrive? I would say, there are two major factors responsible for it. One, the rise in population. And two, the plenteous amount of manufacturing companies. Both together, have given rise to the current economy and the competition between them. This scenario has led to the development of products that have a similar purpose. However, the names of these products differ. Also, the technology which drives them differs. This creates a state of confusion among the buyers when they are looking for the availability a of the options for buying a particular product. Today, we’ll talk about Monitor Cables. They’re nothing but the connectors that connect a monitor with the CPU of a computer. When you go to buy these cables, you’ll be amazed at the available types and their abbreviations. Also, you can insert these cables into multiple ports of computer based on its type. Some are technically advanced, some have better features. And your computer system offers more ...

You just cannot take away the electrical oxygen we require for survival! All our major day to day activities either are contingent on machines or electricity or both. We need machines and machines need electricity. Electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor. Now, to align that flow of electrons, we need a metal conductor sheathed inside a poly vinyl chloride insulator (PVC). This equipment typically known as a  power cord . Power cord, power connector, mains cable or line cord – call it with any of those names but the purpose it serves would not change. These power cords let you connect your electrical appliance through itself with one of its ends plugged in the wall socket or a wall extension board and its other end is plugged in the receptacle installed on the appliance, to build a system of temporary connection. Appliances which are purely power backed, need these power cords to get connected with the main electrical supply line for powering and energizing it...

Two of the greatest innovations of human history: Machines and Electricity. Like always, the beauty of the creations often tends to enslave the creators. Today, we literally live along with the new species of electronics surrounding us. The human race today heavily relies on these gadgets. And just like us, these gadgets too hog on energy sources for their kind. Animals acquire food to derive energy for their survival and the machines around us are as good as being alive. They don’t acquire the food. But they do need energy to function. So, what is the source of their energy? Whenever our smartphone or laptop pings and displays a notification “low battery, please connect to a charger”, we immediately realize that the gadget is energy deprived and we need to feed it. We attach it to a cable, a power cable cord and connect one of its end to the device and the other to the wall. In order to make these connections, we use   power plug adapters . Practically, the tools are par...
