Years ago I used to do some lightning protection consulting and seminars for protecting Radio sites. One common misconception is that a shielded cable will keep the surge energy off the conductors inside. WRONG! Years ago the folks at PolyPhaser did some testing by applying a 10,000 amp surge to the shield of a cable. they measured what was at the end and found that half of the surge energy was transfered to the inner conductors. The small wonder of capacitance that transfers energy between parallel plates (or wires in this case). Still need an ethernet protector at the ground, shielded or not.
