Hi All,
I have a Firewire device that I need to access over 30 meters of sheilded twisted pair (STP) cable. Yes, I know this isn't even close to spec, but I only need about 2Mbps data transfer rate.
Option 1 - Since I haven't found any cabling kits like there are for ethernet plugs, I am going to have to solder the conductors inline at each end from a salvaged FW cable.
Option 2 - Use an interface converter at each end that will reliably transfer over 30m of solid core copper cable at 2Mbps minimum.
Option 3 - ???
Any thoughts or suggestions on the subject?
Thanks,
Jason
