I know it is outdoor shielded , but cat5e.  We've been at this site about three 
years (ok, maybe six).  They occasionally move more data than 10 meg and we get 
alerts gets are congested.  I will see if we can add the loops.  Where on the 
cable should the ferrite beads go?

  Before the plug on the cable ends.  You can also make all CAT5 cables have 
about 5 turns of cable as a choke coil at each end too if you have enough 
slack. 
  Shielded cable will help too.  No need to ground it.  I would focus on 
anything near the transmitter and FM transmitting system.

  we are collocated with a radio station in another town that has been causing 
our ethernet speed to drop to 10 meg.
  i know we've discussed ferrite beads  - - how should they be replaced on the 
cable to try to eliminate the noise causing
  us to negotiate at 10 meg?

  thanks

  the station is a low power fm - under 100 watts
