No shielded ends... How in the world would you ever get the copper
corrugated braid into that?
If your not using it with the Cambium PTP500 cable glands (which have a
mechanical grip the digs into the copper) then use something like:

and tie the ground wire to the tower steel or whatever it is you want to
protect. Use regular RJ45's for the Ethernet connection.

For all you guys that rock BBDGE at tower sites -
Are you using shielded ends - Does the copper cladding fit up into the
connector? Care to attach a picture of what you consider a proper connection??
The only time I've messed with this cable, it was a huge PITA to get the
copper cladding up into the shielded connector. Not sure if that was even the
proper method.....?
Do you also bond the shield to ground the same way you would LMR cable with the ground
kit? Similar to this:
