Shielded Ethernet cable?
#6
Leigh, can easily buy off the shelf STP (Shielded twisted pair) patch cables, the plugs on there will have an easily identifiable metal shield on the plug outer.  If you need it to go through walls then there is also STP infrastructure cable.   As Terry mentioned, you need compatible sockets / plugs to use with it.  Look around for a local ISP who does wireless home internet installs, there outdoor cable should be STP and they should have all the gear to terminate it.  Now be aware, you should only earth one end of the cable as far as I remember or you end up with earth loops.
