bulk 1000 foot rolls didnt seem like a "great" price, due to the 50 and 100 footers being so cheap!  perfect for ppl who dont want to splice their own and for beginners like me!  hahahaha

Either for vanilla DMX or for Pixelnet, unshielded should be fine.

Yeah, me too, except when Tiger is selling 50-foot cables for half of the Monoprice price and there's no CA tax (and shipping is reasonable).

Bought seven cables from Tiger just now, saving me $15.19 over the Monoprice price (including tax).

HTH.

Unshielded will work just fine.  When you are pulling high power loads thru the same cable, shielded can actually work against you. 
If at first you don't succeed,
your not cut out for sky diving

Whew!!! Relieved!!!! I didn't THINK it would be a problem, but a little confirmation goes a long way!!!
