Hi,

I'm not sure what you are doing, but I have two long runs with 10s of 18b20s on at least a couple hundred feet of cat5. The way I do it is 1 pair for +5, 1 pair for ground and one pair that is out and back data lines to the punch down panel (I know it's a bus, but star wiring is way easier in a building.) I hate to think what the effective capacitance on the data line is. Driven by two different Link interfaces.

I do get occasional errors, but it works pretty well.

My cable issues don't yet have to do with connectors. From posts I have read here I was under the impression that 1wire would work over Cat5 up to 100m. Not for me. I am testing with one sensor, a waterproof DS18B20 from Adafruit. Longest cable that works is about 45 feet. I have tried a LinkUSB and a HobbyBoards powered master. Using a Raspberry Pi.

    You have a source for ip rated with screw terminals? I never found
    one. I looked at xlr some time ago and was unsatisfied with what I
    found. Another equipment vendor I know uses them, but 'pretty
    waterproof' is insufficient for an end-user product if I sell it on.
