A modular plug connector and cable assembly comprises a modular plug with a wire holder, and a twisted pair cable. The twisted pairs are braided in order to cross over conductors of the twisted pairs, and furthermore to separate the pairs of conductors and from and in order to reduce inductive and capacitive coupling therebetween. The wire holder helps to keep the pairs twisted and the straightened end portions of the conductors as short as possible. The cable assembly as described provides low cross talk and enables consistent termination with little deviation in the signal transmission speeds.
Twisted Pair that is generally used for networking uses "RJ45" connector and twisted pair used in phone lines uses "RJ11".

There other RJ (Registered Jack) connectors too for different twisted pairs types.
