Using unshielded cat 8 cable
Do you think it would present any problems to use a 2m length of
unshielded cat 8 (4 twisted pairs) cable to connect the luminance signal and chrominance signal from my Sky receiver to the tv?. Crosstalk, perhaps.
Also plan on using the other twisted pair for the audio left and right outputs.

Re: Using unshielded cat 8 cable
Shouldn't be too much of a problem without a balun at that sort of distance - but why???? Is it buried in the wall or something?
