That is a very old *advertisement*

Here are some modern references that are not from people with a lot of
old IBM type 1 cable they try to sell.

No modern company/university/department/business use STP.

Maybe in Malaga, where they nail cable to trees :-)
You make Spain sound backward. Not true.

Expansys and DTT Global Networking Solutions are the o biggest cable companies in 
Spain (and Europe). I can tell you they rarely see STP except to remove it or for 10 year ago for outdoors. Even outdoors between buildings it is fibre now.
In ceilings near fluorescents just use J hooks and run perpendicular - but usually always
fibre unless homemade installer.

I think you do not represent most business.
