@Jan: in the document linked by Paul (http://www.maximintegrated.com/en/app-notes/index.mvp/id/148) they start by saying "The scope of this document is limited to 1-Wire networks that use Category 5, twisted-pair copper wire and have 5V bus power supplied by the master" So i guessed that this was

@Paul: Yes i had read that website some time ago. It made me change (then) from (mixed) star topology to my current (linear) bus. to accomodate this i followed the suggestions of the list members and used the utp-wires 4and5 for the dépard and wires 3and6 for the return. I did not try another chann
