Residential Bonding and Grounding of Shielded Ethernet Cable (Full Overview)

It’s rare to actually need shielded Ethernet cable in a residential setting. Many DIY installers (homeowers) have the impression that shielded Ethernet is “better.” After all, wouldn’t shielded be somehow better than unshielded Ethernet? Well, oftentimes, the answer is “no.” Shielded Ethernet does not make your cable faster. The shielding is designed to mitigate EMI/RFI interference or potential ESD discharges that you know you need to avoid.
