Because availability of service is important for all e-business websites, steps must be taken to prevent disruption of service by events such as power outages and damage to physical infrastructure.

Because the coilgun's electric circuit is inherently analogous to an LC oscillator, the unused energy returns in the reverse direction (' ringing '), which can seriously damage polarized capacitors such as electrolytic capacitors.

Because of the constant and relatively low speed, a cable car's potential to cause harm in an accident can be underestimated.

Because this internal 1571 does not have an unused 8-bit input / output port on any chip, unlike most other Commodore drives, it is not possible to install a parallel cable in this drive, such as that used by SpeedDOS, Dolphin DOS and some other fast third-party Commodore DOS replacements.

Because some regions have had difficulty picking up over-the-air signals ( particularly in mountainous areas ), alternative means of distribution such as direct-to-home satellite and cable television have been introduced.

Because of this sensitivity to impedance variations, a TDR may be used to verify cable impedance characteristics, splice and connector locations and associated losses, and estimate cable lengths.

Because the cable was the first fiber optic cable and not coaxial cable, the electrical interference shielding for the high voltage supply lines was removed.

Because many telephone companies do not offer naked DSL ( DSL service without POTS line service ), VoIP use is higher amongst cable modem users.

Because the cable moves faster than most passengers could safely disembark and load, each chair is connected to the cable by a powerful spring-loaded cable grip which detaches at terminals, allowing the chair to slow considerably for convenient loading and unloading at a typical speed of 200 ft / min ( 2 mph, 4 km / h, 1 m / s ), a speed slower even than fixed-grip bunny chairlifts.

Because the first version of the Japanese e-Reader did not have a link cable pass-through connector, it can fit into consoles which the later e-Readers are incompatible with.

Because cable television is a closed system with elective access there are fewer rules and restrictions about content.

Because CHRO was carried by cable television companies in the Ottawa market, this was deemed an ownership conflict for Baton, who already owned Ottawa's CJOH, and would therefore have a de facto twinstick in competition with the CBC's CBOT.
