Hi, first of all I use cat5e cable for pretty much everything because I have a large supply of it, so even my power cables are cat5e. I'm not using high voltage or high current, so I hope that is okay.
My real question is, is there a way to join two or more cat5e cables so that I won't need a junction box that is taking so much space. I still want to make it look pretty though. I was thinking soldering each wire, put an electric tape for each wire then cover all of it with the original cable plastic. The problem is, that plastic is already cut. Do you think I could use the soldering iron to melt the plastic to seal the whole thing. Any other suggestion are welcome as long as the joint looks pretty and does not take too much space. Thanks.
