STP stands for shielded twisted pair. when you look inside a networking cable there are six different wires these wires are "paired" and these pairs are twisted. The purpose of this is to prevent something known as cross talk. Cross talk is where the signalalong the wire experiences an electromagnetic interference induced by Eddie currents By twisting the two wires this phenomena, is cancelled out and the data can then be transmitted without interference There are a few types of networking cable commonly in use UTP (un-shielded) STP and coaxial UTP is generally a lot cheaper than STP so is used more commonly however STP cables also have a "shielding" which surrounds each twisted pair as well as a main shield "shielding" all three pairs. This provides more protection from "external" sources of interference such as power sources or strong signals.
These cables are used to link computers to other computers, or computers to other parts of the network such as "switches" or "routers". The cables can be wired in different ways depending on the use. Connecting computers to each other allows you to create an "intranet" where users can easily share and exchange data, share internet links, or share software/hardware also connected to that network - Jason MEng
the disadvantage os stp that it is time consuming.
10 to 1000 Mbps for less than +/- 100m
Coaxial cable uses an internal piece of copper wire, surrounded by plastic insulation which then has another layer of copper strands before the outer layer of insulation. This is used mostly for radio signals, connecting antennas to things, as well as transferring digital networking signals.
Iam pretty sure that baseband coax was 50 ohm and was used for networking computer, were broadband coax is 75 ohm and used in the cable tv industry.
Fiber optic cable is primarily used for networking within a single building.
Difference between coaxial cable and STP cable used for computer networking?
Coaxial cable, STP cable, UTP cable
STP is more reliable because it can withstand more noise abuse than UTP and therefore provide a more reliable transmission.
Ethernet is a good choice for networking.
UTP cable, BNC connector, STP cable
In Networking it means: Signalling Transport Protocol
Shielded Twisted pair cable
STP is also called coaxial cable
100
STP is more reliable due to shielding.
STP has two common meanings in networking:1. Shielded twisted pair, a type of cable.2. Spanning-tree protocol, a system used to permit redundant links in switches, while avoiding switching loops.STP has two common meanings in networking:1. Shielded twisted pair, a type of cable.2.

An STP cable is a Single Twisted Pair cable, and it has a few advantages. One advantage is that it is more secure than other cables. It also transmits faster, and has a greater resistance to interference.
