Note:
The standard description convention for Category cables is as follows -
U/UTP |
Unscreened overall, unscreened twisted pairs (often also called UTP) |
F/UTP |
Foil screened overall, unscreened twisted pairs (often also called FTP) |
U/FTP |
Unscreened overall, foil screened twisted pairs |
F/FTP |
Foil screened overall, foil screened twisted pairs |
F/FTP |
Foil screened overall, foil screened twisted pairs |
S/FTP |
Braid screened overall, foil screened twisted pairs |
