It depends on the type of LAN; the most common cable in a LAN is UTP cable. In older LAN types you could also use coaxial copper cable. For UTP cable that would be Cat 5, cat 5E or above for most LANs.
UTP cable is limited to 100 metre runs for 100 Mbit Ethernet, for higher speeds, the distance is less.
Fibre optic, though Ethernet is developing 10 gigabit UTP-based speeds for short runs.
Most UTP cable is limited to 100 meters.
Actually, a UTP cable doesn`t have any shielding. UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair.
Typically a straight thru UTP cable can be used.
STP is more reliable because it can withstand more noise abuse than UTP and therefore provide a more reliable transmission.
it is a point where a UTP cable connects to the device
A category 6A cable is one of the preferred cable medias that is used to support 10G network speeds. It is very important to have the correct kinds of media that will be able to support a persons networking needs.
