sleepyjohn Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) Hi there where could I get a cable and plugs made up for me? Would Kitty Electronics mentioned elsewhere be a possibility? Does Amorn do it? Or do I need somewhere more computer orientated? cheers Edited March 25, 2010 by sleepyjohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyh Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Probably more economical to buy them already made from a computer store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyh Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 30 and 50 meters are standard length cables that can be bought off the shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadish_sweetball Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Keep in mind there are different types. If you want to future proof for gigabit internet you should go with CAT6. If that is not a concern CAT5 is cheap as chips. I've wired my house with CAT5 but I only required 20 meter lengths, which I bought in one of the non-descript shops on the second or third floor in Panthip, it was prepackaged in a clear plastic bag and very cheap. It has lasted me fine for over a year, for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long will the cable last if you are serious about it being strung in the trees? I shall try computer plaza as it's nearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
