Does anyone know what this thread-like material to the right on the picture is?
Does it have anything to do with grounding?

I've always used it as a way to strip back the outer coating. I don't know if this is what it's meant to be though.

It is used to split the outer shielding away without needing to use a sharp object which could potentially damage the wires themselves. It is commonly called a ripcord.

It has nothing to do with grounding or shielding -- those have to be metal, or metalised plastic.
Cables often have all kinds of filler materials to do with
- Manufacturing processes
- Handling properties
- Strength
Do you have a reference for the cable?

Its called a ripcord and is used to cut thru the outer casing of the wire so you don't have to use a knife. To those who say it is not strong enough your not using it right. Grab it with a pair of needle nose pliers wrap it around the tip a couple times and then pull back it works perfectly. I have used it as a ripcord for more than 30 years. Granted on really cheap cables it does not work well but then those cables don't work really well for network use either as the twist on the wire is not correct either. To the person who said it is to support the cable when pulling it, WRONG it does no good for that.

Yeah definitely not a rip-cord. It's not conductive either so nothing to with earthing the connection (you'd know if it was that). My best guesses are:
Left over from the manufacturing process
Helps stop wires from bending too sharply
There's also powder in the cable to help with any moisture, I wonder if this fibre string holds the powder.
Maybe there's multiple reasons. All I know for certain is it's annoying :D

The rip-cord (for that is what it is) has no resistance to bending. The powder is to stop the wires sticking together.
