3.3 Shielded Twisted Pair and Unshielded Twisted Pair
We recommend that you use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable, and stress
that the compliance to electromagnetic interference was tested using STP
cable. There are different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you
to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our non-skew-free
cable, Kramer BC-STP is intended for analog signals where skewing is not
an issue.
In cases where there is skewing, our Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) skew-
free cable, Kramer BC-XTP, may be advantageous, and UTP cable might
also be preferable for long range applications. In any event when using UTP
cable, it is advisable to ensure that the cable is installed far away from
electric cables, motors and so on, which are prone to create electrical
interference.
