[QUOTE="marantz123, post: 1125707, member: 16849"] Thanks for the feedback guys, it seems that the techie doing the work may have some cable he could use, otherwise my friend has found some CAT6 UTP which he didn't realise may work. (Thanks for the offer [USER=746]@chrisc[/USER] ). UTP CAT handles POE which is up to 48v at 2A, so this cable could work, its 23AWG, however will suggest he doubles up on the return, thanks for that idea. (I assume that the term "communication cable" aligns with the type of cable used in the RS232 standard, which should make CAT5/6 UTP a decent substitute in the application despite it being solid core). (The techies response when the CAT6 option was tabled was that they don't use that cable because it has too many white strands in it! He was referring to each twisted pair which has a solid colour and a white with a solid stripe on it which he didn't know about....we educated him, sent him some pics too). [/QUOTE]
