Re: KAT5 Switcher

[keithdoxey]

You could try, but I wouldnt count on any success, you will be
sending an unbalanced signal which is designed for short cables only.
The capacitance of the CAT5 may distort the signal quite badly
leading to corruption or no output.

You wont do any damage unless it comes into contact with a voltage
somewhere so give it a try.
