Webcams are usually USB. I've used

for a 30m run on a phillips toucam - but you need to get a network patch cable as well (e.g. for 10m )

An "Active" Extension as you describe fits within the 5m limit - it's 5m per segment (a hun will also act as a repeater). You can daisy chain up to 6 of them.

I've tried usomg passive extensions - they become flaky at a total length of less than 6m (it's a timing issue).

I think I'll stick to just peeking in the coop every now and again.

I always put a name on the original art work so it's obvious if you've forgotten to flip at any stage in the process.

Could you not have fitted the IC on the track side?

[Dave Plowman (News)]

Easily done. And it's always the last one you have. ;-(
