Crosstalk occurs in twisted pair wire when a current or signal in one wire can produce an unwanted current or signal. If the two wires run parallel to each other the chance for crosstalk increases.
Mutual inductance is a consequence of an alternating current (AC) in one conductor developing a fluctuating magnetic field which induces current flow in another close-coupled conductor. In computer networking or communication, this is termed cross-talk.
The signal in the source wire is mirrored (at a lower strength) in the other. Where two conductors run parallel to one another for long lengths, the cross-talk signal is additive and can be considered as noise, where the other conductor is carrying its own signal.

Crosstalk interference is the tendency of signals on one twisted-pair wire to interfere with signals on a wire next to it?
True
In twisted-pair wire how does the twist ratio affect transmission?
(1) the higher the twist, the higher the throughput (2) The higher the twist, the the lower the crosstalk
With the use of unshielded twisted pair copper wire in a network what causes crosstalk with the cable pairs?
the magnetic field around the adjacent pairs of wire
Why two wires are used in twisted pair cable?
You may need a "return" for the signal. If you do not the other wire is twisted in various configurations along the length to reduce crosstalk and signal leakage. It is easier to balance capacitive loads,
Does Shielded Twisted Pair wire follow the same standards as Unshielded Twisted Pair wire?
No
How do you avoid crosstalk?
Don't run too much wire together in a bundle. You can also go with STP, which is Shielded Twisted Pair and that does not have much crosstalk. There are pipes you can buy where you run cable through them that are also suppose to help.
What are major limitations of twisted-pair wire?
twisted pair wire is limited in distance, bandwidth, and data rate.
What is the operation principle of a twisted pair wire in transmission media?
Describe the basic construction of twisted pair wire?
Why do UTP and STP have twists?
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.

Why twisted pair cable called twisted pair?
Twisted pair is the ordinary copper wire that connects home and many business computers to the telephone company. To reduce crosstalk or electromagnetic induction between pairs of wires, two insulated copper wires are twisted around each other. Each connection on twisted pair requires both wires. Since some telephone sets or desktop locations require multiple connections, twisted pair is sometimes installed in two or more pairs, all within a single cable. For some business locations, twisted pair is enclosed in a shield that functions as a ground. This is known as shielded twisted pair (STP). Ordinary wire to the home is unshielded twisted pair (UTP).Twisted pair is now frequently installed with two pairs to the home, with the extra pair making it possible for you to add another line (perhaps for modem use) when you need it. Twisted pair comes with each pair uniquely color coded when it is packaged in multiple pairs. Different uses such as analog, digital, and Ethernetrequire different pair multiples.Although twisted pair is often associated with home use, a higher grade of twisted pair is often used for horizontal wiring in LAN installations because it is less expensive thancoaxial cable.The wire you buy at a local hardware store for extensions from your phone or computer modem to a wall jack is not twisted pair. It is a side-by-side wire known as silver satin. The wall jack can have as many five kinds of hole arrangements or pinouts, depending on the kinds of wire the installation expects will be plugged in (for example, digital, analog, or LAN) . (That's why you may sometimes find when you carry your notebook computer to another location that the wall jack connections won't match your plug.)
