Hi All,
I am working on a project transitioning my office's phone system over to a new VOIP system---This will involve running some new wiring.
I have access to a supply of Shielded/UTP Cat5e wire (has a foil shield over the collection of pairs, but not each individual pair).
My experience with shielded wire is non-existent and everything I read mentions that the shield must be grounded in order for it to do anything.
Does anyone know of adverse effects of using this wire type like a standard UTP wire without grounding the shield?
