<p>I need to make an extension for my new Digitrax throttle and interface.</p> <p>Thanks for any info.</p> <p>[Edit] No, I guess not. I see Cat6 doesn't necessarily mean 6 conductor. What I need is six conductor network cable with RJ12 connectors wired "reversed" which really means pin 1 wired to pin 1 and not reversed really....at least so it says on the Digitrax site.</p> <p>Trouble is, I don't have a Digitrax dealer nearby. I will probably have to make my own cable. I suppose I could rewire the cable to get the pins right if necessary...I did it for my computer reversed cable and it still works.</p> <p>But anyone know of an electronics shop network cable that will work...and what is it called?</p> <p> </p>
