Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I will be adding five more controllers to my display this year, and will be using data/phone wire for the links to each unit. After pricing both types of wire, I found the phone wire is quite a bit cheaper. I know I need to use data cable as the first link from the computer to the first controller, but what, if any, is the down side to using phone wire to make all the other connections? All my controllers will be within 100' of one another........Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Thanks Don, I saw that info at your site. So I take it distance is the only limiting factor for the use of phone wire?.................Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
