The media connector between the NIC and the UTP cable is a RJ-45

it is not UPT ,it is UTP which stands Unshielded Twisted Pair. The UTP is mainly used for network cabling i.e; LAN cabling.
UTP or STP Cat 5 cable uses an RJ-45 connector.
The connector used to terminate Ethernet cables is called an RJ-45 connector. They are the clear plastic connectors you see at either end of an Ethernet cable.
UTP most commonly used network cableCat 5 and Cat 6 network cables (also called 10BaseT) use an RJ-45 connector. Older thinwire ethernet (10Base2) uses BNC coaxial connect. Original thickwire ethernet used a special thicker cable with a proprietary AUI connector. The old IBM Token Ring system also used its own special cabling and connectors.

This rule does not apply to other network protocols or Ethernet networks where all fiber optic cabling or a combination of a fiber backbone with UTP cabling is used. If there is a combination of fiber optic backbone and UTP cabling, the rule is simply translated to a 7-6-5 rule.

Yes, UTP is the most popular cabling standard used in majority of networks all over the world.
UTP & COAX cable's are used
Connections to a network depend on the topology and cable type you are using. If we take the most common connection it is via UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cabling, utilizing an RJ-45 connector. This connector takes 8 wires in a modular connection on the cable.Plug one end of the cable into a network interface card on your PC, and the other end to a network connection, which may be a switch, router, hub, etc. The EIA/TIA structured cabling guidelines 568A/B will tell you much more about these types of connections.
Which two places are most appropriate to use UTP cabling?
10base-T uses for twister pair cable which speed 10mbps.
