Regarding CAT7 Shielded Cables I read the following in another forum:
>>>
Do you see any special grounding fingers inside of the sockets that serve to connect with cable shields? Probably not!!! These will leave you with a totally ungrounded shield(s) on your CAT cables and this configuration actually generates more noise on your signal lines; than a cable without any shields at all. If you do have grounding fingers on the inside of your Ethernet socket; you loose again. Now you will have both ends of your cables grounded and creating a great deal of ground loop currents running between different pieces of equipment in your installation.

I have an Asus z10PE-D8 WS motherboard. Does the motherboard have grounding fingers which will support shielded CAT7 cables? How do I determine this?
