Technology is at a turning point right now, and growing pains come with that. By 2022 we were supposed to have flying cars and wireless charging. While both are true, they are only in their initial stage. Our devices' processors are ultra-fast, but the batteries are only catching up to that requirement. The biggest requirement the tech of today demands from us is certain port sacrifices.  In an attempt to cut down on multiple cables, we now have fewer ports on our devices. However, not all peripherals have hopped on this trend. They are still using their other connectivity standards, so connecting them to a laptop can get tricky.  This is where that sacrifice comes in. Instead of always simply carrying around a laptop and getting everything done on it, we have to carry around little adapters that are just the right version for what you connect via them.  So here are a few dongles you need to keep around: A charging cable for your iPhone iPhones have infamously ...

Unbalanced wires have more chances of picking up the noise you d...

To answer that, we will have to talk about the coaxial cable first. What it is, where it is generally used, and its specific benefits. Then we can talk about the different types of coaxial cable.  Coaxial Cable - A Brief They are a cable that transmits electric signals between devices and systems. These cables specifically pass radio frequency signals in the form of transverse electromagnetic waves.  By design, there is an inner conductor, surrounding which there is a dielectric layer; this layer is enclosed in a cylindrical sandwich with additional layers of shielding and an outer protective jacket to prevent damage to the signal carrying component during installation or from the environment.  Coaxial cables can transmit high-frequency signals with less loss.  Different Types of Coaxial Cables There are different types available, all suited for their specific purpose. Let's take a look: Hard line coaxial cable Flexible coaxial cable Semi-rigid coaxial cabl...

More and more companies are moving towards work from home or adopting a hybrid work culture. Having an internet connection is a mandatory thing to have.
