Is this cable shielded and would I need it to be shielded to run in-wall for about 40ft?

No, it is not shielded. Don't know why you would need it to be shielded for in-wall.

The cable is not shielded, it's rated in/outdoor because of the material that is made to resist high temps, I use this cable to connect floors on my town home, The shielded term refers to the protection against electromagnetic interference produced by power lines, electric motors, fluorescent lights, thermostats, and electrical circuits which are found in just about everything these days. If you are running in wall near a power line you may get EMI or noise on the line. If this is for a regular use line then you should be more than fine with this cable if the run you are trying to get is critical than you should consider shielded but remember that the connector will also need to be shielded in order to take advantage of it.

Yes and no. If you put it in conduit, then it's protected enough you should be fine. It is not an outdoor rated cable, however.

Hi!You will run under carpet without any problem.... this a very well made cable, very sturdy! This specs form the cable: "A copper clad center conductor, dielectric insulation, aluminum braiding and 2 layers of foil shielding, for maximum protection against the hum/static encountered when multiple devices are in close proximity of each other".....

I wouldn't recommend it for this. I had consistency problems (on and off and on and off) with a 30 foot connection that was line of sight (no obstructions). I would imagine that walls at 25 ft. would create problems for you.

Not sure how its shielded internally but I measured a very low EMF. Does not effect my equipment even when i am within inches of light fixture

No the cable is adquately sheilded . Unless the building code where you live requires the use of conduit . If you want to not see the cable you can use the hdmi recepticle plate and run the excess cable in the wall.

It all depends on how long the run is and if it will be going near any electrical cables. Electrical cables and long cable runs often cause annoying humms. A good quality cable like this one should alleviate those problems. If it is still an issue, mind my asking what type and model your AV Recever is?

Yes these cables are for installation concealed in walls. The ones I installed passed our commercial electrical inspection.

All cables can be shielded or unshielded, unless the spec specifically requires it. As C. Weaver said, CAT 6 is usually shielded, but not always. Look for the designation "STP" which stands for "Shielded Twisted Pair".

Agree with everyone about direct bury. However, while it's not shielded, it's twisted pair and the twisting and 2-wire differential voltage transmission significantly reduces (or compensates for) electrical magnetic (EM) interference--which is what shielding is also for. So, for homes and businesses, you dont need shielding.

John, I found a site on Telflex that explained how to measure and it worked perfect. On mine I had to measure the shielded cable and add 31". Hope this helpsJim

Yes the speaker literature says it is shielded. It has a heavier feel to it that is due to shielding.

Hello,You should only need one cable.Hello,No this cable is not "in wall" rated but I've seen reviews where customers have used them in the walls.Thanks,Mediabridge Customer Support

I don't know about shielded but I'll bet Fluke tech support knows. I'm pretty sure it will tone coax cable which is shielded of course. You could use the toner attached to the shield. That would effectively remove the shield as an issue.

Hello Nicholas,Our cables are shielded very well to prevent interference. Thanks,Mediabridge Customer Support

I would assume any un-shielded wire would work though I have not tried extending it.

I believe the technician mistook FEET for METER. According to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers which created the specification Sony adheres to it is 100 meters in the main run, called "horizontal" in some cases, using Category 6 cabling with solid core. Your patch cable, made with stranded cable gives you 10 meters between the device and wall jack. Your stranded cable has higher attenuation than solid cable, if you go over 10 meters on the stranded, reduce the solid accordingly. Just buy some good cabling - cat5, or 6, your choice, for a 10 foot run. Look up Panduit, or Belkin. Cheers. I believe the technician mistook FEET for METER.
