From a networking perspective the two main types of twisted pair cable that have been used extensively; particularly with Ethernet, are Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) and Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP). The biggest difference between the two is the presence or absence of a shielding layer but all types use various twist periods to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference (EMI) or noise and cross-talk interference.
There are 2 types such as:
1- UTP (unshielded twisted pair) is most commonly used in LAN's with maximum cable length of 100m.
2- STP (shielded twisted pair)- is extensively used for telephones
there is 5 catgory cat 1 thru 5 cat1 is called rj11 its for phone lines only, cat 2 is for digital telephones and low speed networks. cat3 is for eathernet cat 4 is for ibm token ring network standard and CAT5 the most known of is for high speed internet with a signalling rate of 100MBps
The classic categories are: 3 and 5 (hence a Cat5 cable)
Cat3 is usually used for phone service. specifically multi-line systems or with a fax machine. It has 3 pairs of wires.
Cat5 is used in data applications like computer networking. It has 4 pairs.
There has been a cat6 marketed. It is functionally the same as a Cat5 but is manufactured at a higher quality.
A twisted pair cable consists of two copper conductors.
1- UTP (unshielded twisted pair) 2- STP (shielded twisted pair)

Ribbon cables are mostly, but not always lower voltage signal carriers. Power cables are mostly larger and carry higher voltage to various parts tht need it.
there are 3 types of cables are there 1 Twisted wire a) UTP ( Unshielded Twisted Pair b) STP ( Shielded Twisted Pair 2 Co-axial cable 3 FOC ( Fiber Optical cable )
Twisted-pair cables Coaxial cables
fiber optic cables, coaxial cables, and twisted pair cables.
A twisted cable is two conductors of a single circuit that are twisted together. They are twisted together to cancel out electromagnetic interference.
they are uused for televisipn
Twisted pair cables were invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1881.
They are twisted just to avoid as mush electrical and magnetic interference between them, which is created when the current flows through them.AnswerConductors within cables are twisted in order to allow the cable to be flexible.
These cables are used in telephone lines to provide voice and data channels.
No. Coaxial cable is a single wire that has a thick coating around it. A common use of coaxial cable is for cable television. This is the cable that goes from the jack on the wall into your cable box. Twisted pair contains multiple cables which are split into pairs and twisted together. CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 cable are all examples of twisted pair. There are a total of 8 wires inside. Every two wires are twisted together to form a pair. The purpose of the cables being twisted together is to reduce electrical interference between the wires.
