Which distortion occurs when digital signals traverse unshielded twisted pair cables?

💡 Explanation

Near-end crosstalk (NEXT) increases signal interference because electromagnetic coupling induces unwanted signals from nearby transmitters. Therefore, signal power degrades at the receiver rather than experiencing phase changes because cable twisting reduces external EMI sensitivity.
