Yes, UTP is the most popular cabling standard used in majority of networks all over the world.
it is not UPT ,it is UTP which stands Unshielded Twisted Pair. The UTP is mainly used for network cabling i.e; LAN cabling.
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.
That is a LAN with cables as opposed to wireless LAN without cables. Network cables now mostly used for a wired LAN are UTP (unshielded twisted pair) CAT5E, although STP (shielded twisted pair) and CAT6 or CAT7 specifications are also used. Before COAX cables were used.
cheap and simple connection use utp if noise or interference have to consider then co-axial
UTP or unshielded twisted pair
A switch, UTP straight through cables,Lan Card
Connect each device to a centralized LAN switch using UTP cabling
For LANs the most common media is UTP cable.
Typically a straight thru UTP cable can be used.
UTP (Category 5, 5e, 6, and 7) Fiber-optics Wireless
Mainly in LAN we can use 4 types of cables: 1) STP - Shielded Twisted Pair 2) UTP- Unshielded Twisted Pair UTP have 2 types 1 is Straight Cable 2 is Cross Cable 3) Coaxial Cable 4) Fiber Optic Cable
The first variety is UTP or unshielded twisted pair, often used in LAN's with maximum cable length of 100m. The second one is STP or shielded twisted pair, extensively used for telephones.
