what type of wire does this unit use? can i run wire a long distance, say over 150 feet?

I don't really know what kind but I think it was an ethernet cable or something like that... And yes it works for long distances, my house its big and they're working excellent! I would recomend them

Does the monitors and the door bell have to be connected using those short white wires? How would I connect a Cat5e cable when the item has those plastic white connectors on the end?
500033
I use UTP Cat5e, and respect to the distance I don't have idea how much long distance of wire can it support

Yes, just be sure to identify each cable by color and try to not make joints, use a complete coil.

Wire on my unit is approx. foot long. Works well. This the second unit that I bought. First one was for my father who was elderly and could not turn on a lamp.

The wires are about 5-6 inches past the stem, white, black and copper ground. The unit is meant to be mounted on an outdoor junction box and hardwired within.

I haven't had a problem with a 50' extension cord with 14 ga. wire. If you want to go 100', you should probably use 12 ga.

The wire size is not stamped or laser imprinted on the outside insulation jacket of the cable, my best guess is somwhere between 18 Awg and 22Awg. If you need to know exact you might want to get in touch with blue rigger. I do know that 50 foot runs are awful long and you need to consider signal loss as a possible issue, if you do have signal loss try using a signal booster. Thanks

My longest distance is about 30 feet, have a refrigerator between the send and receive units , you would need to check the specs or other reviews.

Try to add 19 Ft of regular wire, see if it works. You have nothing to lose...

I have a run that long and it works. I also have a run shorter than that and it occasionally has RF interference. An important factor when running the wire is to keep as far as possible from sources of RF. This will be electric wires, dimmers, and switches primarily but if you can keep the run away from CATV, that would be good too.

Sorry, but I have not used it for a long run as a 1000 ft Try using a cat 6 instead.

I pull wire for a living.. Your supposed to be able to use POE at the max distance just over 300 feet. Cheaper POE's will not push the power to the full distance. I have had some fail as low as 70 feet. Most cheap POE injectors fail around 120 feet.

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."

My contractor had to run the wires from outside my house and along my vestibule walls to get in the house to hide the wires. You will definitely need the 50ft of wiring. I did not hook it up to my locks. I am still uncomfortable with that technology in my home.

I'm sorry man I really don't know I straight wired mine and I will tell you this if your doing the wireless remote take you a piece of speaker wire and tie it in to your antenna wire and extend that thing out it took my range form 60 ft to 150

This unit must run on a dedicated 220 line; the line is made for that and will not fit in a regular outlet. We are very pleased with this unit.

I don't know about the unit you mentioned. I have used them on the TENS 3000 and TENS 7000. The thing with these wires is that they have to be replaced pretty frequently. Sorry, I couldn't be of more or any help.

you should use 12 gauge wire, but you could use 16 gauge if not running long distance.

Just guessing here, we did not need verly long wires but I would say maybe 8 feet? Not too long but you can always buy more/longer wire if you need it
