Are there any advantages or drawbacks to using shielded cable, as opposed to regular patch cable?
I have a lan of 15 computers connected to a gigabit switch which is connected to a router . The router is connected to the cable modem. I ordered 500ft cat 6 sheilded cable instead of the regular cat 6 unshielded. I was wondering if there were any drawbacks to doing this . I ask becaus ethe prices were almost identical.
Shielded will always be better. Both in data cables as well as audio cables. Shielded means that they have placed an extra layer of either plastic or metal around the wiring in order to reject any outside interference. Outside interference being cell phone, tv, radio, microwave signals. This allows better transmission of your data with more accuracy as it gets to the endpoint.
