Re: Extendable PWM Cables?

For long distances and multiple PWM cables, we use cat5e. I think this year we ended up running up 3 cat5e cables. We try not to share the ground and the power, even though we can, it's hard to splice into the middle of a cat5e cable and have it work okay. =p

But yeah. That's how we run PWM cables long distances. Not sure how it affects weight.
