At the same time, the advent of fibre-optic technology enabled companies to extend their systems to nearby towns and villages that by themselves were not viable cable television markets.

The technology was extended to DVD players and other consumer electronic recording and playback devices such as digital cable and satellite set-top boxes, digital video recorders, and personal media players.

External keyboards may attach to the PDA directly, using a cable, or may use wireless technology such as infrared or Bluetooth to connect to the PDA.

In modern telephone networks, fiber-optic cable and digital technology are often employed in such connections.

To demonstrate the viability of the technology, Morgan tries to run a thin cable of ‘ hyperfilament ’ from an orbital factory down to ground level at Taprobane.

* VOD technology became widely available among cable users worldwide, enabling the users to select and watch video content from a large variety of available content stored on a central server, as well as gaining the possibility to freeze the image, as well as fast-forward and rewind the VOD content.

Telephone companies were pressured into moving to ADSL largely due to competition from cable companies, which use DOCSIS cable modem technology to achieve similar speeds.

Also, network hardware company D-Link has named technology which allows two simultaneous connections over one cable, for example 1 ) Internet and 2 ) provider's local FTP or game servers or IPTV data flow.

Loaded cable is no longer a useful technology for submarine communication cables, having first been superseded by co-axial cable using electrically powered in-line repeaters and then by fibre-optic cable.

An example of this network could be cable TV technology.

In 1988, Vázquez Raña sold UPI to Infotechnology Inc. an information technology and venture capital company and parent company of cable TV's Financial News Network, both headed by Earl Brian, who also became UPI chairman.

Despite the fact that optical fiber had been invented in 1970, this cable was still using coaxial cable technology.

Zenith offered a cable modem technology using its own protocol which it introduced in 1993, being one of the first cable modem providers.

The Zenith Cable Modem technology was used by several cable television systems in the USA and other countries, including Cox Communications San Diego, GTE's Americast service, Cogeco in Hamilton Ontario.

The technology used for domestic lines includes microwave radio relay, cable, and Global System for Mobile Communications ( GSM ).

The original Weather Star technology has been upgraded on larger cable systems to the IntelliStar, including Vocal Local to announce the current conditions, weather bulletins, and the detailed local forecast.

The original WeatherStar technology is still in use by small cable companies that cannot afford to upgrade to IntelliStar.

Telephone services provided by cable TV companies also use digital switching technology.

These early systems quickly went out of business, as the cable industry adopted satellite technology and as flat-rate systems like Home Box Office became popular.

A cable or rode is the rope, chain, or combination thereof used to connect the anchor to the vessel.

LocalTalk used a splitter box in the RS-422 port to provide an upstream and downstream cable from a single port.

Analog television may be wireless or can require copper wire used by cable converters.

A single cable coming out of the 5200 plugged into the switch box and was used for both electricity and the television signal.

With his opponents defeated, Captain Gould on Audacious used the spring on his cable to transfer fire to Spartiate, the next French ship in line.

Captain Antoine René Thévenard used the spring on his anchor cable to angle his broadside into a raking position across the bow of Nelson's flagship, which consequently suffered over 100 casualties, including the admiral.

In most cases the roadway is flat, so when the weight of the cable is negligible compared with the weight being supported, the force exerted is uniform with respect to horizontal distance, and the result is a parabola, as discussed below ( although the term " catenary " is often still used, in an informal sense ).

The Hammerhead has been equipped with a mechanical claw, and a harpoon that can be used as a tow cable.

Coaxial cable is usually used to carry the cable television signal into a residence.

The abbreviation CATV is often used for cable television.

The standard cable used in the U. S. is RG-6, which has a 75 ohm impedance, and connects with a type F connector.

So-called " wireless cable " or microwave-based systems are used instead.

The biggest advantage to digital cable telephone service is similar to the advantage of digital cable TV, namely that data can be compressed, resulting in much less bandwidth used than a dedicated analog circuit-switched service.

In 1883 the New York and Brooklyn Bridge Railway was opened, which had a most curious feature: though it was a cable car system, it used steam locomotives to get the cars into and out of the terminals.

Instead the distinction went to the 1884 route from Archway to Highgate, north London, which used a continuous cable and grip system on the 1 in 11 ( 9 %) climb of Highgate Hill.

In the last decades of the 20th century cable traction in general has seen a limited revival as automatic people movers, used in resort areas, airports ( for example, Toronto Airport ) and huge hospital centers.

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.

In addition to the direct applications ( mp3 players or computers ), digitally compressed audio streams are used in most video DVDs ; digital television ; streaming media on the internet ; satellite and cable radio ; and increasingly in terrestrial radio broadcasts.

As a method of in-band signaling, DTMF tones were also used by cable television broadcasters to indicate the start and stop times of local commercial insertion points during station breaks for the benefit of cable companies.

DTMF tones are also used by some cable television networks and radio networks to signal the local cable company / network station to insert a local advertisement or station identification.

An elevated power cable from the mainland to Arapawa Island over Tory Channel was struck by an Air Albatross Cessna 402 commuter aircraft in 1985.

An elevated cable car system, Metrocable, was added in 2004 to link some of Medellín's poorer mountainous neighborhoods with the Metro de Medellín.

It would have been an elevated cable metro system that would glide above the city's river.

An elevated passenger ropeway, or chairlift, is a type of aerial lift, which consists of a continuously circulating steel cable loop strung between two end terminals and usually over intermediate towers, carrying a series of chairs.

Some bi and tri cable elevated ropeways and reversible tramways achieve much greater operating speeds.

* In 1896, a short northerly elevated extension of the Brighton Line ( since reorganized as the Brooklyn & Brighton Beach Railroad ) to the corner of Franklin Avenue and Fulton Street allowed rapid transit trains of the Fulton Street Line of the Kings County Elevated Railroad to operate from the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn Bridge to Brighton Beach, where a walking or cable car service connection over the bridge allowed access to New York City Hall at Park Row.

Many cables were necessary to connect all the components, and methods to accommodate and organize these were devised, such as standard racks to mount equipment, elevated floors, and cable trays ( installed overhead or under the elevated floor ).

The first elevated line was constructed in 1867-70 by Charles Harvey and his West Side and Yonkers Patent Railway company along Greenwich Street and Ninth Avenue ( although cable cars were the initial mode of transportation on that railway ).

The elevated side walkway had to be renewed over a length of 750 feet ( 230 m ), and the cable ducts cast into the walkway and walls were replaced over 300 feet ( 90 m ).

Suspension railway is a form of elevated monorail where the vehicle is suspended from a fixed track ( as opposed to a cable used in aerial tramways ), which is built above street level, over a river or canal, or an existing railway track.

He also served as director for the American cable company, the Western Union telegraph company, and the Manhattan consolidated system of elevated railroads in New York City.
