From a networking perspective the two main types of twisted pair cable that have been used extensively; particularly with Ethernet, are Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) and Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP). The biggest difference between the two is the presence or absence of a shielding layer but all types use various twist periods to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference (EMI) or noise and cross-talk interference.
