in networking UTP stands for?

In networking, UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair. It is a type of cable commonly used for network connections, consisting of pairs of wires twisted together to reduce electromagnetic interference. UTP cables are widely used in Ethernet networks and telecommunications due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of installation. They come in various categories (e.g., Cat5e, Cat6) that determine their performance and data transmission speeds.
