How to make a sheilded network cable

gabigirl80 · 06-05-2009, 02:47 PM

Hello. I'm new here and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to make a shielded Network cable. I have to make 4 of these for a customer and he wants shielded crossover. I can make regular crossover, but shielded is a whole new ball of wax. I have all the things I need. just the soldering that has me stumped. Where do I solder?
