Heyo,
So I have to install some 2400baud Serial devices throughout a medium sized warehouse. Would it be possible to wire them using Cat5 cable, with lengths up to 150 feet, to a hub? What about using USB instead of Serial? I've seen lots of pages where people report up to 50m transmission of USB using Cat5 cable, just wondering if you guys have any experience with it.
I'll be connecting about 12 RFID reader's to a hub, then from the hub to a computer another hundred or so feet away.
Thanks!
