Can some one tell me the difference between STP vs UTP?
STP Shielded Twisted Pair
UTP Unshielded Twisted Pair
STP has a layer of foil around the outside of the 4 copper pairs, which
is supposed to be connected to a metal shield around the outside of your
RJ45 plug.
Similar to the shield around audio cable... supposed to stop/limit RF
interference.
