STP - Shielded Twisted Pair is twisted to reduces crosstalk. Crosstalk is when the signal crosses wire and reduces the communication quality. Twisting the pairs reduces the signal transmission to other wires in the cable "pack". Twisting them increases the length the cable can be run. Category 5 has a usable length of 100m, 330ft.
What else can I help you with?
Which is faster stp or utp?
UTP Is unshielded and STP is shielded UTP generally being bulkier and more expensive.
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
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.
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.

Why is UTP more common?
UTP is cheaper to install than STP or coaxial cable; therefore, it is a popular network choice
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.
