1 One does not attempt to capture everything in one's dissertation. 2  The dissertation is a technical work used to document and set forth proof of one's thesis. 3  It is intended for a technical audience, and it must be clear and complete, but not necessarily exhaustively comprehensive.
Twisted-pair cable. A twisted-pair cable is a cable made by intertwining two separate insulated wires. There are two twisted pair types: shielded and unshielded. A Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) has a fine wire mesh surrounding the wires to protect the transmission; an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) do not.Shielded cable is used in older telephone networks, as well as network and data communications to reduce outside interference. Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) has a fine wire mesh surrounding the wires to protect the transmission; an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) do not. Shielded cable is used in older telephone networks, as well as network and data communications to reduce outside interference.
Unshielded Twisted Pair Connector. The standard connector for unshielded twisted pair cabling is an RJ-45 connector. This is a plastic connector that looks like a large telephone-style connector (See fig. 2). A slot allows the RJ-45 to be inserted only one way.
