What is the difference between super six network cable shielding and unshielding?

　　Super six network cables (Cat6a) are divided into shielded and unshielded types, which are different in structure, performance, application and price. The following is a detailed comparison of these two types of network cables:

　　First, structural differences

　　Shielded super six network cable

　　The interior contains four pairs of twisted pair wires, which are separated and fixed by a cross skeleton.

　　In addition to the wire pair and cross frame, there is a shielding layer that wraps the cross frame and core. This shielding layer is usually composed of materials such as aluminum foil and woven mesh to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).

　　Unshielded super six network cable

　　It also contains four pairs of twisted pairs, which are separated and fixed by a cross-shaped skeleton in the middle.

　　There is no additional shielding layer, relying primarily on internal physical structures and materials to reduce signal crosstalk and attenuation.

　　Second, performance differences

　　Shielded super six network cable

　　It has higher anti-interference ability and can withstand external electromagnetic field interference, ensuring the stability and reliability of signal tranSMission.

　　It is suitable for occasions with high requirements for network transmission performance, such as hospitals, financial end point equipment, etc.

　　Unshielded super six network cable

　　The anti-interference ability is relatively weak, but it can meet the basic network transmission requirements in ordinary network environments (such as homes, offices, buildings, etc.).

　　The price is relatively low, the network is flexible, and it is easy to install.

　　III. Applicable occasions

　　Shielded super six network cable

　　Suitable for environments where electromagnetic interference may be serious, such as hospitals, data centers, financial end point equipment, etc.

　　In these environments, shielded network cables ensure the stability and reliability of signal transmission, reducing network failures due to electromagnetic interference.

　　Unshielded super six network cable

　　It is suitable for environments with relatively little electromagnetic interference, such as homes, offices, and ordinary buildings.

　　In these environments, unshielded network cables can meet basic network transmission requirements, and the price is more economical.

　　IV. Price Differences

　　Generally speaking, the price of shielded Super 6 cable is higher than that of unshielded Super 6 cable. This is mainly because the shielded cable is more complicated in structure and material, and the production cost is higher.

　　In summary, the super six shielded network cable and unshielded network cable are different in structure, performance, application and price. When choosing, it should be weighed according to the actual wiring environment and electromagnetic interference. In a strong interference environment, it is recommended to use shielded network cable to ensure the stability and reliability of signal transmission; in a normal network environment, unshielded network cable is a more economical and practical choice.
