Actually, a UTP cable doesn`t have any shielding. UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair.
Shielding
the twisting of the wires in the cable
UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair. This is a type of cable which has the shielding above the twisted cables for EMI/EMC protection.
STP is more reliable due to shielding.
Most UTP cable is limited to 100 meters.
Typically a straight thru UTP cable can be used.
UTP or unshielded twisted pair cabling is used in local area networks. Two causes of signal degradation are losing light over long distances and low quality cable shielding.
it is a point where a UTP cable connects to the device
four pairs. white/blue, white/orange, white/green and white/brown
functions of utp
Which of the UTP cable categories is recommended as 100Base T media? CAT2,CAT3,CAT4,CAT5
The UTP (Unshielded twisted pair) cable is preferred; it's far less expensive to install in large amounts.
