Jim All my cables are EIA 568B Some I made some I bought. It worked fine until the lightning strike which took out a fair few sensors and the 6 port hub. I have now made a power injector and have all the sensors in series. On short 1 meter cables all sensors work connected together in series. As soon as I add a longer cable they will all disappear from the network.
All cables test fine on a cable tester and work fine on gig Ethernet, there are no shorts and the voltages appear on the end of the long cable at 12 and 4.95 volts. The LinkUSB light stays on very dimly with a long cable connected even with nothing connected to it. I am at a loss as to where to look next.
