What ethernet operates at 100 mbps and uses stp or utp cabling rated cat-5 or higher?
100 Base T
What protects utp from emi?
UTP
What is a UTP coupler?
A UTP coupler is a small block to which you can connect two UTP cables to form a longer one. Handy if you have 2 short cables but need a long one.
Which two places are most appropriate to use UTP cabling?
Which two places are most appropriate to use UTP cabling?
What is a an STP networking cable and what is its use?
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
Which is more expensive utp cat5e or stp cat5e?
UTP is unshielded. Cheaper. STP is shielded.. more expensive.
Does utp have a grounding carrier?
No that would be STP
What is the maximum length of a STP?
The max. length of STP is the same as UTP, 100 meters
Which type of network cable is more reliable STP or UTP?
STP is more reliable due to shielding.
What type of networking cable is more reliable stp or utp and why?
STP is more reliable because it can withstand more noise abuse than UTP and therefore provide a more reliable transmission.
Why is UTP more common?
UTP is cheaper to install than STP or coaxial cable; therefore, it is a popular network choice
Dose STP or UTD provide more resistance to outside interference?
That would be STP versus UTP. STP provides more protection from interference, due to the shielding. "S" stands for "shielded" in this case. "U" means "Unshielded".That would be STP versus UTP.

What cabling you using star topology?
cat5, cat6, utp, stp cables etc.
What cable UTP or STP is preferred by the industry?
The UTP (Unshielded twisted pair) cable is preferred; it's far less expensive to install in large amounts.
Which media types use copper as a conductor?
Coaxial cable, STP cable, UTP cable
Which is more expensive utp cat5 cabling or stp cat5e?
STP CAT5e STP uses a covering around the pairs of wires inside the cable that protects it from electromagnetic interference caused by electrical motors, transmitters, or high tension lines. It is more expensive than UTP cabling so it's only used when the situation demands it.
What is the minimum cable type 100base TX specifies?
Type 1A STP or Cat 5 UTP.
