Material, explained

Shielded cable.

Also written STP, S/FTP, F/UTP, screened.

What is shielded twisted-pair cable?

Shielded cable adds a metallic screen, around each pair or around the whole bundle or both, to reject external interference and limit crosstalk between neighbouring cables. It is specified where motors, drives or dense 10G bundles create noise. The screen only works if it is bonded to earth continuously along the channel, so shielded parts must be paired with shielded jacks, panels and cords.

Defined by ISO/IEC 11801 cable construction codes, published by IEC.
