UTP Cable : Unguided Twisted Pair (UTP) is a popular type of low cost cable that consists of two unshielded wires twisted around each other which is used extensively for Local Area Networks(LANs) and telephone connections. 2. STP Cable: Shielded Twisted Pair(STP) is a type of copper telephone wring in which each of the two copper wires that are twisted together and are coated with an insulating coating that functions as a ground for the wires. 3. Coaxial cable: Coaxial cable is a wire with single-ended single reference where the central conductor carries the data signals. 4.
