Why shielded twisted pair are twisted?
To save the data flow from ATTENUATE and external INTERFERENCE.
What is STP in computer science?
STP is shielded twisted pair - used in data communications.
What are the advantages of ordinary twisted pair compared to the shielded ones?
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.
Does Shielded Twisted Pair wire follow the same standards as Unshielded Twisted Pair wire?
No
Where is shielded twisted pair used?
A shielded twisted pair or STP is a copper telephone cable that secures signal-carrying wires inside a conducting shield. It main purpose is to reduce the possibility of electromagnetic intrusion.
What is the meaning of stp cable?
Shielded Twisted pair cable
The speed that shielded twisted pair transmit data at?
Category 5 ( CAT5 ) cable can transmit up to 100 Mb/s
What is the advantages and disadvantages of twisted pair copper?
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. 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.
Why shielded twisted pair is better then twisted pair?
So that other signals, such as a magnetic field, don't interfere with the cable signals.
What is the significance of the twisting in twisted-pair cable?
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.
Is twisted-pair cable is made up of plastic or glass fibers that transmit data at extremely fast speeds?
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.
What type of cabling is typically used for 100BaseT?
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)
