  2. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

    Twist-on wire connectors. Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other ...

  3. Twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_pair

    A twisted pair can be used as a balanced line, which as part of a balanced circuit can greatly reduce the effect of noise currents induced on the line by coupling of electric or magnetic fields. The idea is that the currents induced in each of the two wires are very nearly equal. The twisting ensures that the two wires are on average the same ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BNC_connector

    Typically 0–4 GHz. The BNC connector (initialism of "Bayonet Neill–Concelman") is a miniature quick connect/disconnect radio frequency connector used for coaxial cable. It is designed to maintain the same characteristic impedance of the cable, with 50 ohm and 75 ohm types being made. It is usually applied for video and radio frequency ...

    VIVO on these graphics cards typically supports Composite, S-Video, and Component as outputs, and composite and S-Video as inputs. Many other video cards only support component and/or S-Video outputs to complement Video Graphics Array or DVI, typically using a component breakout cable and an S-Video cable.

    Alligator and Crocodile clips – conductive clamps used for temporary connections, e.g. jumper cables; Board to board connectors – e.g. card-edge connectors or FPGA mezzanine connectors; Twist-on wire connectors (e.g. wire nuts) – used in low-voltage power circuits for wires up to about 10 AWG; Wire wrapping – used in older circuit boards

  9. Ethernet over twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_twisted_pair

    Ethernet over twisted pair. Ethernet over twisted-pair technologies use twisted-pair cables for the physical layer of an Ethernet computer network. They are a subset of all Ethernet physical layers. Early Ethernet used various grades of coaxial cable, but in 1984, StarLAN showed the potential of simple unshielded twisted pair.
