What is Crosstalk in Copper Network Cables?

What is Crosstalk in Copper Network Cables?

– What is crosstalk? The signal interference between cable pairs.

– What may cause crosstalk?
A pair picking up unwanted signals from adjacent pairs of conductors and nearby cables.

– What is the main reason for twisting conductor pairs?
To minimize crosstalk and noise by decreasing capacitance imbalance and mutual inductance coupling between pairs.

– How a crosstalk within a multipair cable be minimized?
By giving each pair a different twist length within a standard range.
