Shielded Ethernet Cable “Foil vs Braided.”

Foil Shielding F/UTP

  • Foil shielding offers 100% coverage and performs best at high frequency.
  • It’s not very durable and has poor mechanical strength.
  • What type of electromagnetic field is effectively blocked by foil? Higher frequency (30 MHz and higher).

Braided Shielding S /UTP

  • Braided shields offer 70%
  • 90% coverage and perform best at low frequency.
  • This type of shielding is durable and has strong mechanical strength.
  • What type of electromagnetic field is effectively blocked by copper braid? Lower frequency
    (below 30 MHz).
