Line 12:

The [[DC component]] of the encoded signal is not dependent on the data and therefore carries no information. Therefore connections may be [[Inductive coupling|inductively]] or [[Capacitive coupling|capacitively]] coupled, allowing the signal to be conveyed conveniently by galvanically isolated media (e.g., Ethernet) using a [[network isolator]]—a simple one-to-one [[isolation transformer]] which cannot convey a DC component.

According to [[Cisco]], "Manchester encoding introduces some difficult frequency-related problems that make it unsuitable for use at higher data rates".<ref>{{citation |url=http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Ethernet_Technologies |title=Ethernet Technologies |publisher=[[Cisco Systems]] |access-date=2017-09-12 |quote=Manchester encoding introduces some difficult frequency-related problems that make it unsuitable for use at higher data rates. |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181228005303/http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Ethernet_Technologies |archive-date=2018-12-0828 |url-status=dead}}</ref><!--Difficulties are in meeting [[Title 47 CFR Part 15]] and other RF emissions requirements.-->

There are more complex codes, such as [[8B/10B encoding]], that use less [[bandwidth (signal processing)|bandwidth]] to achieve the same data rate but may be less tolerant of frequency errors and [[jitter]] in the transmitter and receiver reference clocks.{{cn|date=November 2015}}
