Yes
there is. shielded cable reduces the interference though
It improves performance It maintains strong signals over longer distances It reduces electromagnetic interference and emissions
The twisting in a twisted pair cable helps make the cable immune to electromagnetic interference. These cables are of two types: Shielded and unshielded twisted pair.
UTP Cable stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair cable. It doesn't provide electromagnetic interference from any electronics nearby the wiring, but is cheaper to buy than Foiled or Shielded Twisted Pair. Unless outside Electromagnetic Interference is more than a minor concern, I would suggest sticking to UTP. Also the most common used cabling in computer networking.

To save the data flow from ATTENUATE and external INTERFERENCE.
Twisted-pair cables are made out of copper, they are shielded with plastic to prevent electromagnetic interference but the actual cable is made out of copper.
Twisted pair wire is placed inside a thin metallic shielding, similar to aluminum foil, and is then enclosed in an outer plastic casing. The shielding provides further electrical isolation of the signal-carrying pair of wires. Shielded twisted pair wires are less susceptible to electrical interference caused by nearby equipment or wires and, in turn, are less likely to cause interference themselves. Because it is electrically "cleaner," shielded twisted pair wire can carry data at a faster speed than unshielded twisted pair wire can. The disadvantage of shielded twisted pair wire is that it is physically larger and more expensive than twisted pair wire, and it is more difficult to connect to a terminating block.
Keep the cables away from any substance that might generate EMI interference. Also, you can use a shielded cable instead of an unshielded one to reduce interference.
That would be STP versus UTP. STP provides more protection from interference, due to the shielding. "S" stands for "shielded" in this case. "U" means "Unshielded".That would be STP versus UTP.

Coaxial cables are shielded; thus preventing them from other interference. UTP cable means Unshielded Twisted Pair - thus it has no protection against incoming interference.
STP, shield twisted pair, is recommended by most of us who've had A+ certification training.
