Hello, the manufacturer recommends using a BC-500 cable to connect the controllers (communication via RS-485 ports). In your opinion, can this be replaced with some other cable, e.g. twisted pair cat.6 FTP or some other?

Hello You can use twisted pair (100 Ohm twisted pair), it is worth knowing UTP cat.5 node-to-node 250m, max. length of network segment 450m JY(St)Y node-node 320m, max. length of network segment 500m Belden 8471 node-to-node 400m, max. length of network segment 500m Belden 85102 node-to-node 500m, max. length of network segment 500m Regards Andrew

Hello

You can use twisted pair (100 Ohm twisted pair), it is worth knowing

UTP cat.5 node-to-node 250m, max. length of network segment 450m
JY(St)Y node-node 320m, max. length of network segment 500m
Belden 8471 node-to-node 400m, max. length of network segment 500m
Belden 85102 node-to-node 500m, max. length of network segment 500m
