I have successfully used 75 ohm coax (cable TV wire) to transmit S/PDIF over a run of more than 200 feet.
However, any wire you use (coax or Cat5) cannot be carrying any other signal at the time. And if you are using Cat5, it cannot be connected to any active networking devices (no routers, hubs, etc.). None of those devices would know what to do with S/PDIF. -- TiredLegs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TiredLegs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6201 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31514 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
