I have 2 x 1-wire networks and I'm about to add a third. The longest segment is probably about 80m-100m long with about 25 sensors and the other is probably 70m and has about 20 sensors. All cabling is CAT5e I'm using the: - Link-USB adaptors http://www.ibuttonlink.com/linkusb.aspx - DS28EA00 based temperature sensors. http://owfs.org/index.php?page=ds28ea00 I'm powering each sensor board from a 12V DC supply that runs through another pair in the UTP cable and each sensor board has an on-board 5V regulator. I chose this combination of adaptor and sensors because they are supposed to have improved reliability and noise immunity. So far I found it to be quite reliable.
