viennaxmas Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 One thing I have noticed with regards to cables - in a lot of cases it is cheaper to buy another controller than running 16 x 50 ft extension cords... made for a nice set of new controllers this year :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Birsching Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I've had my Cat 5 cables right next to the power cables and never had any issues due to noise. The one time last year I had problems it turned out one of the connections in the controller box (cable jack) was a bit flaky and it caused problems. Just had to take the cord out and re-plug it back in, and it worked fine. Having said that, I do try to leave some separation just to make sure noise is not an issue. I end up with about 250 ft total of Cat 5 and it works just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
