The advantages of Twisted pair cable are
1)Data transfer rate 100mbps
2)Can support more length(not sure in numbers)
3)Less cost
Speed: Ethernet can send up to 10,000mbps (10 Gbit/s) over TP cable.
On run length.
The above maximum is for Ethernet signalling, and this is required to ensure that Ethernet's collision-detection function will work correctly.
For voice-grade telephone, the run length is only limited by line loss due to cable attenuation.
Remote locations and rural/country properties are commonly many kilometres from local telephone exchanges, and the cable runs will be straight connections with no intermediate "booster" amplifiers/repeaters.
ADSL provision complicates the matter. ADSL runs at maximum speed for cable lengths under about 2.5 kilometres, ADSL2 begins to drop off at about 1.3 m (under a mile).
After that, their speed drops off rapidly, with a maximum of some 6.5 km (about 4 miles) the absolute limit for ADSL2 service.
1) It can be easily connected. 2) It is easy to uninstall and maintain.
1) Twisted pair cable is less expensive2) Twisted pair cable is required for modern transmission standards****************It is a thin, flexible cable that is easy to string between walls.Because UTP is small, it does not quickly fill up wiring ducts.UTP costs less per foot than any other type of LAN cable
The twisting in a twisted pair cable helps make the cable immune to electromagnetic interference. These cables are of two types: Shielded and unshielded twisted pair.
if by "twisted pair cable" you mean a cat5 cable which is commonly used as an ethernet cable. then it´s made of copper.
with RJ 45 conecter & unshilded twisted pair cable
twisted pair cable can used as LAN connections....for example CAT5 and CAT6 both twisted pairs.
Twisted pair wiring is a digital signal.Coaxial cable is an analog signal.

Shielded Twisted pair cable
A twisted pair cable consists of two copper conductors, each one with its own plastic insulation and twisted together
Twisted pair cables were invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1881.
