Maplins are pricey around £100, SS electrical - never thought of them.

Hum, cant find a number for SS Electrical anyone?

Forget it found them, but they don't do shielded.

Scan computers do it! As far as I remember....but they're mail order obviously. JPG Electronics in Chesterfield should do it.

Why do you want shielded cat5 cable? I thought the point of twisted pair was that you don't need shielding?

Shielded cable is normally used within a machine environment, workshops etc.
