Identifying Wires
■ Whenever wires are bundled into a cable it
is important that they are identifiable.
– In cables with a relatively small number of
wires, a color-coding scheme is preferred.
– In cables with a large number of wires, this is
impractical due to the limited number of colors
available. Here, an alphanumeric code may be
stamped at intervals on each wire.
■ In either case it is necessary to determine a
wire’s source and destination.

UTP Wires
■ 4-pair UTP cables in this course use a
standardized wire color code:
– White/Blue - Blue/White (Pair 1)
– White/Orange- Orange/White (Pair 2)
– White/Green- Green/White (Pair 3)
– White/Brown - Brown/White (Pair 4)

Electrical Properties Of
Copper Cable
■ As you know, data is sent to various parts
of a network by means of digital pulses.
9
Properties Affecting Copper
Wiring
■ The electrical properties you should be aware
of include voltage, current, resistance,
capacitance and inductance.
10
Definition of Terms
■ Voltage
– The electrical potential between two points.
– Unit of measurement is the volt.
■ Current
– The movement of electrons from a more
negative point to a more positive point.
– Unit of measurement is the ampere or amp.
■ Resistance
– The opposition to current flow.
– Unit of measurement is the ohm.
11
Relationship Of These Properties
■ Ohm’s Law, the fundamental rule that defines
the relationship between voltage, current and
resistance, is expressed by the equation:
E=IxR
12
Derivations of Ohm’s Law
■ Ohm’s Law, or E = I x R, explains the
relationship of voltage to current and
resistance. This can be transposed to show
that:
I = E/R,
and that
R = E/I
These three equations will help you
understand later discussions.
13
Resistance
■ First, let’s take a closer look at electrical
resistance.
– Resistance is the opposition to current flow.
– Current is the flow of free electrons.
– Therefore, resistance is the result of a material’s
reduction in the number of free electrons.
