Coaxialcable

Twisted-paircable

Inlocalareanetworks,twisted-paircablesarewidelyused,mainlybecauseoftheirlowcost,highspeedandhighreliability.Therearetwobasictypesoftwistedpair:ShieldedTwistedPair(STP)andUnshieldedTwistedPair(UTP),bothofwhicharetwistedtogethertoformatransmissioncircuit.Thetwowiresaretwistedtogethertopreventinterference(thedifferentialsignalonthepairhastheeffectofcommonmodesuppressionofinterference).

Opticalfiber
