Hi im working on a project and i need to get 12v dc down 1000ft of cat 5 cable on only 2 pairs.
I am currently testing using a 49vdc psu to push the voltage down the total 1000ft. Then use some sort of regulator to keep a clean 12v signal.
So i am trying to use a lm340t12 but am having some issues.
I need to try and simulate a 12v 500 ma load beacause i dont want to hook up the device and have wrong voltages destroy it.
The device runs off 12vdc and consumes 400ma or so.
Any suggestions for a dummy load to simulate the device?
And any other input on this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
