Which mechanism causes signal attenuation in unshielded twisted pair ethernet cable at high frequencies?

💡 Explanation

When frequency increases induced capacitive coupling increases because parasitic capacitance grows proportionally with frequency, leading to signal leakage and crosstalk which attenuates signal. Therefore the signal degrades due to capacitive coupling rather than resistance, interference, or reflections alone which require different factors.
