Hi, it’s a good question about using unshielded Cat 6 in the same conduit with an HDMI cable inside. Shielded Cat 6 is typically more reliable for reducing interference, while unshielded can work if the environment is clean. The HDMI cable shouldn’t interfere with internet speed unless there are other issues. Shielded is usually better for stability, though it costs more.
Close to HDMI is safe. The biggest issue arises when power and many cables are nearby.
Separate high voltage from low voltage and data cables is recommended. Whether this creates a problem depends on the cable length and application. For instance, with 1Gbps over Cat 6 near a single extension power cable, issues shouldn't arise. But for 10Gbps over a longer Cat 6 run, even minor interference can affect stability and bandwidth. In permanent installations, it's best to do this separation once and correctly.
