Shielded vs unshielded cable doesn't matter for this application.

Don't buy crap converters is the answer and make sure you do the calibration of the converter when you install it. If you don't follow the calibration you will burn up the balun.

Gefen is the brand I'd recommend. They cost more but have been trouble free when I've installed them.

From Geffen website:

quote:

Note: Shielded (STP) CAT-5e or CAT-6 is recommended. Unshielded (UTP) CAT-5e or CAT-6 may be acceptable depending on cable quality but is not the best choice. Care should always be given to keep these cables away from power lines and other sources of electromagnetic interference.
