Hi all, I need to power some rgb strips, and I'm thinking of using cat5e because I have loads.
I'm wondering if I should use all 8 cores, this means I could power 2 strips from one run but will the fact that the cable is twisted pairs give me any cross talk between the channels? Or I could use one run of cat5e per strip and double up the twisted pairs.
The length will be around 6 meters max, and the current on each conductor will be around 0.2A
thanks
