Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What is coaxial cable? Coaxial cable is a type of copper cable specially built with a metal shield and other components engineered to block signal interference. A coaxial–or coax–cable is primarily used by cable TV companies to connect their satellite antenna facilities to customer homes and businesses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Coaxial cables transmit signals through the center wire. To ensure a quality signal travels the length of the cable a metal shield is needed. Both components receive a current simultaneously, generating a magnetic field. This allows the signal to remain intact and not bleed out like it would without the shield.
