extra shielding for cat5
the line is a dsl line being used for voice but presumably a computer could be plugged in (there are actually two cat5 - one is a backup line). I haven't experience interference with the voice usage but would like to shield it as best as possible before I seal up the ceiling. I'll look into...- thejaybird

extra shielding for cat5
Thanks for your help. I discovered it in a basement ceiling right near an exterior wall - I am finishing out the space. the cat5 goes on up into the wall to a set of kitchen jack outlets so I would prefer to wrap it or the electrical wire if it will work. I don't think I can get a patch cable...- thejaybird

extra shielding for cat5
is there anything (foil or whatever)I can put between my cat5 and a large 60amp wire (they are about 2 incheesapart) to give it extra shielding? Is it even necessary?- thejaybird
