I need to know how to make a cat6 shielded patch cable (sstp/fftp). All
sites I have found explain how to build an unshielded cable (cat5/5e or

STP is need in electrically noisy environments. One office I know of was
originally cabled with UTP which didn't work, so had to replaced by STP.
The office was near wires carring a few gigawatts of electricity.
