100 mtrs
The max. length of STP is the same as UTP, 100 meters
100 meter using STP cable (SHIELD twistted pair).
Difference between coaxial cable and STP cable used for computer networking?
The first variety is UTP or unshielded twisted pair, often used in LAN's with maximum cable length of 100m. The second one is STP or shielded twisted pair, extensively used for telephones.
Shielded Twisted pair cable
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.
Coaxial cable, STP cable, UTP cable
STP is also called coaxial cable
That would probably depend on the specific technology, but in the case of UTP or STP, the length limitation is 100 meters.
STP is more reliable due to shielding.
An STP cable is a Single Twisted Pair cable, and it has a few advantages. One advantage is that it is more secure than other cables. It also transmits faster, and has a greater resistance to interference.
