Re: [wlug] Laying a cable

Hi Lindsay, thanks for all the tips. Lindsay Druett wrote:

Cat5e vs. Cat6, for this sort of application, Cat5e is fine. Run in pipe/conduit, don't bury direct, also bury at ~ 600mm deep.

Why does it need to be 600mm deep? I was planning on running the cable down a bit of 20mm alkathene pipe and burying it about 100mm deep. It will only be going across the lawn so unlikely to have vehicles, stock or otherwise going over it. Glenn -- Glenn Ramsey <glenn(a)componic.co.nz> 07 8627077 http://www.componic.co.nz
