RE: 1-wire on structured cableing

["Jon Whiten" <jon@xxxxxxx>]

If I were to do this I would makes sure that there was a 100 Ohm resistor
in
series with each of the individual data line branches on the 1-wire
network.
This apparently makes multi-drop networks more resilient.

Subject: [ukha_d] 1-wire on structured cableing

Ayone using their structured cableing with 1-wire devices attached to the
end of runs?

I tried back at my old gaff by crimping a DS1820 into a RJ45 plug and
putting that into the patch panel in the loft. It seemed to work OK.

My plan was to assign some ports on the panel to be 1-wire only and tie
each
of the pins on the ports in question together. That way each cable plugged
into the panel would be in paralell and I could just pick a pair and add
the
1-wire device to it.

I nevver got around to testing it at any great length, has anyone done
anything similar?
