Figure 3 :Shielded Twisted Pair
Available in three different configurations :
1. Each pair of wires inside the shielded twisted pair is individually shielded with foiL.
2. There is a foil or braid shield inside the jacket covering all wires.
3. There is a shielded around each individual pair as well as the entire group of wires.

STP cable is the less expensive cable among all the cable. It is susceptible to radio and electrical frequency interference. For example, it cannot be too close to electric motors and fluorescent lights. In addition, it size bigger larger than Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) and more difficult on installation. Mostly often use on network using Token Ring Topology and Ethernet networks. Shielded twisted pair may be the solution of the problem. By using the shielded twisted pair cable, the maximum distance of the cables can be increased.
This video is talking about how cross talk can negatively affect a digital video signal when it's run through unshielded twisted pair cabling. Enjoy !
