Definition
The attenuation is determined by the ratio of the power supplied at port A and the power measured at port B.
P a V [dB] = 10 log A PB Input and output of the two-port network have to be terminated with the line's nominal characteristic impedance in order to avoid return loss. Influencing factors
The attenuation of cables is largely determined by the crosssectional area and the conductivity of the copper conductors. In particular in very high frequency ranges, the dielectric loss of the core insulation material contributes to an increase in the attenuation in proportion to the frequency. The attenuation temperature.

A low attenuation improves the transmission reliability of the cabling link. The attenuation of cables and connecting hardware accumulates but it is primarily determined by the cabling.

The near-end cross-talk loss is determined by the ratio of the power supplied at port A to the power measured at port B.
P a N [dB] = 10 log A PB The EUT has to be terminated on both ends with the characteristic impedance. If transmitter and receiver are positioned at the same end of the EUT, the parameter is referred to as near-end cross-talk (NEXT). Influencing factors
The near-end cross-talk of cables is decisively influenced by the stranding and the foil pair shield (if applicable). Near-end cross-talk strongly depends on the frequency used and – only to a minor extent – on the cabling length.
Meaning
A high degree of near-end cross-talk improves transmission reliability. The transmission reliability within the cabling link is largely determined by the component with the lowest degree of near-end cross-talk.

Definition
The power sum of the near-end cross-talk is defined on the basis of the ratio of the power input at the three pairs A, B and C to the power output at pair D. The power-sum NEXT value of cables can be measured by means of a phasecorrelated 4-port power splitter. On the basis of the pair-topair NEXT measurements, the power sum can also be calculated according to the following formula: 3
a PSNEXT [dB] = 10 log
∑ 10
- 0,1 ⋅ a iNEXT
i =1
Influencing factors
The power-sum NEXT value of cables is decisively influenced by the stranding and the foil pair shield (if applicable). Power-sum NEXT strongly depends on the frequency used and – only to a minor extent – on the cabling length.
Meaning
With regard to network protocols that distribute the bidirectional data load over all four pairs, power-sum NEXT is of great importance for transmission reliability since power-sum cross-talk is expected to impair transmission via the data channel.

The far-end cross-talk (abbr. FEXT) is determined by the ratio of the power measured at the remote port B to the power measured at the remote port C. The measuring signal is supplied to the near end of the cable.
P a FEXT [dB] = 10 log B PA All pairs of the EUT are terminated with their characteristic impedance. Influencing factors
The FEXT value of cables is decisively influenced by the stranding and the foil pair shield (if applicable). FEXT strongly depends on the frequency used.

Meaning
With regard to network protocols that distribute the bidirectional data load over all four pairs, power-sum FEXT is of great importance for transmission reliability since crosstalk is expected to impair transmission via the data channel.

Return loss measuring bridge
Definition
Pair of Cores
The return loss represents the ratio of the power supplied to the EUT to the power reflected by the EUT. Pinput a R [dB] = 10 log P output
The EUT end is terminated with the characteristic impedance in order to absorb any non-reflected power. The EUT and the test-value transmitter must have the same rated impedance in the broadband range.
Influencing factors
The return loss value of cables is decisively influenced by the homogeneity of the conductors and the core of the cable. Mechanical load during the manufacturing or installation of the cables may impair the return loss. The parameters return loss and characteristic impedance correlate.
Meaning
A high degree of return loss improves the transmission reliability. A low degree of return loss may lead to an unwanted overlap of returning signal components.

Definition
The velocity of propagation v of cables is stated in relation to the maximum velocity of propagation of electromagnetic waves in the vacuum co. The parameter "Nominal Velocity of Propagation" (abbr. NVP) is defined as follows:
NVP =
v
co
The delay τ is the period of time the signal requires in order to travel through a cabling link with a length of l. The delay is calculated on the basis of the NVP value (Nominal Velocity of Propagation) of the cable and the velocity of light c0 according to the following formula:
τ= Influencing factors
l NVP ⋅ c0
The delay of cables is decisively influenced by the dielectric loss of the core insulation material. This material-induced loss may be minimised by selecting various compounds and by varying the degree of foaming. The impact of colour addition on the NVP value is not to be neglected since the colours vary strongly in their dielectric constants, which are considerably higher than in the basic compound.

connecting hardware, category 6 TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1
Project no.: TKMMA0208 No.: P1892b-08-E
Influencing factors (continued)
The velocity of propagation does not depend on the cable length and may be calculated on the basis of the measurement of the length-dependent group delay. The reference length used for calculation is the cable length and not the lay length of the twisted pairs. Different lay length values in the four pairs lead to different NVP values.
Meaning
In order to ensure distortion-free signal transmission, the velocity of propagation must not fall below a lower limiting value, which is determined by the system requirements. The velocity of propagation has to be virtually independent of the frequency within the signal bandwidth in order to avoid a divergence of the spectral signal components. High-bit rate network protocols that use parallel data transmission via the four pairs, moreover, require a highly consistent velocity of propagation in order to avoid synchronisation errors. Future normative standards will define this so-called "delay skew".
4.2.8 Delay Skew Definition
The delay skew ∆τ of cables with a length of l marks the time difference between signals travelling along the individual transmission links at the propagation velocity vi,j.
vi − v j ∆τ = l ⋅ ⋅ vi v j Influencing factors
The delay skew of cables is decisively influenced by the dielectric loss of the core insulation material and the various lay length values.
Meaning
The delay skew will be an important parameter for a distortion-free data transmission in balanced cables in view of future network protocols.

Data link = 0.5 m

Definition
As soon as an electromagnetic wave reaches a screen, it induces an interference current IDisturb.. This current produces a voltage UDisturb. along the inner conductor. The coupling factor
Z
T
= U Disturbance
I
Disturbance
has the dimension of a complex impedance and is called transfer impedance ZT. The transfer impedance consists of a real part – i.e. the coupling resistance RC – and an imaginary part. In many cases, only the coupling resistance will be of practical importance for the evaluation of the shielding effectiveness. The coupling impedance has the dimension mΩ. In case of data cables it is indicated per unit of length and has the dimension mΩ/m.
Influencing variables
In case of shielded cables, the coupling resistance is primarily determined by the mechanical structure of the braided screen and/or by inserted foil screens. The coupling resistance is very much dependent on the frequency.
Significance
The better the effectiveness of a shield is, the smaller is the value of the coupling resistance.
