UTP: No shielding inside the cable. Not suitable if a COAX or power cable runs along the cable as interference may occur. Unshielded connectors, flush-mounted sockets and surface-mounted sockets are compatible..
FTP: Foil shielding inside the cable. Can be laid together with COAX or mains cables. Shielded (FTP) connectors and flush-mounted sockets are required.
S/FTP: Foil shielding around the wire pairs. Wicker shielding on the inside of the cable. Best protection against interferences. Shielded (FTP) connectors and flush-mounted sockets are required.
