this type of cable is still in need. Implementation of this cable is also relatively easier. But it offered a very
low speed, in addition to various other losses seen from the topology formed by this type of media. (See
the network topology).
There are no cables to be monitored continuously physical condition. Both the cable damage due to

gateway of the world. This media offers high speed, such as fiber optic bandwidth in general, but with
capacity of distance between the continents. About 20% of Internet traffic in Fiber Optic served by this
type. Work on this type of media is very difficult and requires special skills by people who are certified

Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) This media is widely used for special conditions. For example on ships, offshore drilling and places where 4. Wireless The use of this medium is very promising for the present and future, because of small maintenance costs. 3.
