TheSignGuy Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 LOR says 2-3 weeks before it ships. Curious if anyone has 1 or 2 they are willing to sell I can have in a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapkirk Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I believe I have an extra, what part number exactly are you looking for?

TheDucks Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Might I ask why you think you need one? RS485 is good for 4000' (when properly terminated and decent cable)?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My show computer is in the garage and running 2 networks that has to go across the driveway several times. Half the network (reg and Aux A) go to the right and the other half goes to the left, I wanted to save myself from running extra cords. But I found it's cheaper to buy 2 extra 100' cables then buy the repeater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 For those who have to run wires across the driveway and don't have the luxury of conduit running under the driveway like another nameless person 😁, this is where the arches come in handy. I have a ton of wires that go over my arches to get to the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just drive across them 🤦♂️, the wife uses the car that parks in the garage once a week so no big deal. I had intended to buy several of those protective cover ramps but I'm done spending this year 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We run a business from our house and have 15-20 cars per day drive over them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a large spike on each side to zip tie to to keep rain, deer or people to prevent the cable from lifting. It was an affordable and permanent solution.
