10Base2 is an Ethernetcabling specification. Data is transmitted at a rate of 10Mbps along coaxial thin-net cable to workstations along a trunk segment up to 607 feet, supporting 30 workstations per trunk to a maximum of 1024 workstations per network and a maximum network trunk length of 3035 feet.

10BaseT is an Ethernetcabling specification. Data is transmitted at a rate of 10Mbps along unshielded twisted pair cables (category 3 or better) to workstations a maximum of 328 feet from the hub. Each hub can connect twelve workstations, and twelve hubs can be connected to a central hub. Research 10BaseT
American Wire Gauge (AWG) is descriptive of the diameter of wire conductors, particularly in twisted pair cabling; The AWG has an effect on the transmission capacity and distance a given wire can offer. Internationally, wire size is described in millimetric diameter, except in England, where the weight in pounds per mile is used. Research American Wire Gauge
MacLinkPlus/PC by Dataviz is an advanced file-transfer and translation software program that provides built-in communications. The program is designed to allow seamless file exchange between Macintoshes and IBMPCs or Macintoshes and Macintoshes. It can be used with modems or cable and includes software for both the Macintosh and the PC. The package includes a serial cable to connect a PC (25-pin) to MacSE, Mac Plus or Mac II (8-pin DIN). If you are using a Mac 128 or 512, which uses 9-pin serial ports, Dataviz includes a card that can be sent in, with the original cable, to exchange for the correct cable. The package's file translation capabilities provide a clean conversion of file format and contents, including control codes, spreadsheet formulas, and databases. Translations are supported between application formats such as MacWrite, Microsoft Excel, Lotus, Microsoft Word, MultiMate, WordStar, WordPerfect, OfficeWriter, dBase, and DIF. If you have PCs and Macintoshes sharing files over an AppleTalk network, MacLinkPlus/PC
offers a local mode to provide file transfer and translation over network cabling. The product supports batch file transfers. One window displays hard disks, folders, and files on the Macintosh, while another window displays similar information on the PC.
MacLinkPlus/PC includes a special communications mode to allow your Macintosh to dial or hard-wire to systems that support ASCIITTY or XMODEM communications. You can use this mode interactively with local mode, translating files in local mode before sending them or after receiving them from a remote system. Research MacLinkPlus/PC
In architecture, cabling is the decoration of a fluted shaft, column or pilaster with reeds, or rounded mouldings, which seem to be laid in the hollows of the fluting. These are limited in length to about one third of the height of the shaft. Research Cabling
