I would look at a 23 gauge Cat-6. Contact Kevin at Primus. We used it for 300' runs successfully

It's right next to a FM antenna. We've replaced the ~75ft. patch cable with belden shielded CAT5 and shielded ends. We've replaced the cable a couple time now. It will run gigabit in good conditions, but as soon as it rains or snows, the link bounces between gig and 100meg. Both ends are shielded and bonded. My question is, I would like to replace the cable again but with tested factory made outdoor shielded CAT5e or CAT6 at 75ft. I cannot seem to find a quality outdoor rated STP cable at custom lengths that is at least 24AWG solid wire. If anyone can make a recommendation, that would be great.
