Try again - this didn't seem to make it through........
I want a intercom in my workshop which is at the end of the garden. Prior to
building it, I pulled 4 x cables through a piece of blue water pipe and
buried them underground.
The cables are 2 x Cat 5, and 2 x "burglar alarm" cable.
I think from memory that the burglar alarm wire consists of 4 x twisted
pair - all solid. The cat 5 is 6 x wires, all stranded.
Anyway, can anyone recommend a good wired intercom site? I had a look on the
ether and although I can see lots of schematics, does anyone know of a good
site which also includes a BOM from somewhere like Maplin/Farnell/RS? This
would speedme up, but I would welcome pointers to any good sites.
I would also like to have speakers driven from the house end, not very loud
so not much current, should I go with the stranded or with the solid core or
give up with that idea? Same question for a phone extension - stranded or
solid?
TIA
