Cat 5 pairs

Does LOR use all four pairs of wires on a cat5?  I have 2 100ft buried runs under a railroad. (Yes got permission for that) each cable has one broken or touching pair somewhere in the run.

No. Only pins 4 & 5 ( normally the white/blue pair) are used for data.  Pins 3 & 6 (in most cases the white/green pair) MAY be used to supply power from a controller to a nearby InputPup or Easy Light Linker.  The others are not used.
