Coax Cable

 

PIRA Classification: 5N10.30

Description: A fast function generator sends a triangle wave down a 1 ft length and 100 ft length of coax cable. The signals from the two cables are viewed on the scope and the velocity of the signal is calculated.

Special Instructions: The delay between the two signals is around 140 nsec. This demo cannot be used at the same time as 5N10.40 - Reflections in Coax Cable.
