Can these be daisy-chained? I need to run from a 12' ceiling to about 6 feet below the floor and am having trouble finding a 20' or longer cable.

The seller (WiFi-Texas com Inc) knows what he talking about. I have 5 Foscam cameras (combination of 8910's and 8907's). Trying to use 2 of them in series can cause boot-up problems on Foscams.. As seller suggests - use a active injector / splitter to avoid this.

If you do, the voltage drop will be quite a lot, and the camera might not work. For runs more than 10 ft you should use an active injector / splitter

I use this cable for quiet a few long runs around my business. A few from 300 ft to 350 ft and I have one pushing 390 ft. All of these runs are outside between buildings. However they are all underground in conduit. I get good speed but I don't use poe so I don't know that part. I think I'd use conduit outside

So long as the cable run is short. I have a pretty long cable run... and adding a splitter wasn't great for the signal. (Basement to third floor.)

My ceilings are 12 feet - there is at least six feet more rope left fully extended. No problem.

Yes, they can be extended. I extended mine about 10 feet. I am not sure of the gauge of the wires.

Hi Ryan,They're not very long, only about 6 feet. If you're going to use them on a truss, I would suggest rigging a power strip or some outlets close by, and bear in mind that you can daisy chain them together too. We use these as uplighting in my church and for that, we use extension cords where plugs are not nearby.

Yes you can use cat5 with them. They are rated for cat6 though so you can go higher with your cabling.

yes, but if i were you i would not have them over 20 ft apart. i tried 40 ft and had problems staying on line the best thing is to run a cable. regard hosea

They don't come set up for daisy chain, but if know a little a bit about electrical, you could add another cord to make it Daisy Chain.

They make a 15 foot cable if you don't want to hook a bunch if cables together. I purchesed these cable to do multiple things. They com with 4 pin connectors so you don't have to buy them separate. I ran a distance of 17 foot and had no problems with the performance of the lights by connecting cables together to get the distance I needed...hope this helps.

You get 16 ft of track you can make it shorter if you want to. You could add more fixtures as they snap on track and you can position them where you want them just not sure wires could handle the power needed.

yes they have to be connected. if the wires arent long enough they sell extensions.

Yes. You're only limitation should be the height of your ceiling. We have these strung over our son's high bar in the back yard. He pushes them to the side when he wants to practice on the bar and then he puts them back in the middle when he wants to use them for muscle ups ect. We have even had them out in the rain and sun (probably not advisable) since we got them and they still look new. really solidly built.

Yes you could attach another cable to it, however, you would not be able to make it a continuous run. You would have the +/- 100 feet and the +/- 50 feet. We purchased a longer lead line to give my Mom's dog more room. It has kept the 100 lb dog at bay though.

They are all different lengths. But to short if you want them more than a foot or two away from the unit. But you could extend them by splicing in more wire.

For my uses, I do not need to extend beyond the cable length provided with the device. That said... The DS18B20 is a 1-Wire Digital Communications Temperature Sensor. The manufacturer specs state max operating current is 1.5 mA, therefore, the distance will be limited by Voltage Drop. Do not know your application, however, if distances are measured in feet, I'd speculate 20 ft with good copper conductors. I recommend using a shielded cable with shield grounded at the cable termination end only. Greater distances may be possible. Since this device is not that expensive, you could "buy it and try it."

Yes there is no other way for you to install this device without running the wire. Unfortunately, any wire longer than 60ft has been found to compromise the signal and make the audible sounds difficult to interpret. Stay at 60 ft or less preferably and be very careful not to damage or twist excessively, or kink the wire because it is not heavy duty and it will affect the performance.
