GREAT IDEA!!…but what happens if you plug it into your wireless router? Does it broadcast the composite signal through your home? Thanks.

Great idea here…though I’m not very technical, so I don’t know if I could do it :)

The inputs of the Cat 5/6 to serial video converter, C5SV012, are through a single shielded RJ45 socket, and two BNC outputs are provided for each channel.airport-parking-fujr.co.uk

so does this mean i can run one cat5 from the basement to my room, with the greens and oranges going to the router, and the blues and browns going through a balun to the cable?

Or... you could just get a long enough s-video cable. TigZoo.com has one today for free that's 25ft long. I think you just have to pay 5 bucks for shipping.

I was so broke in college that when my belt broke I used a patch cord to hold up my jeans.

Cat5 will NOT hold a fire wire signal. I had tried – just thought i would share.

PCI express over CAT6 cable. It was on the national semiconductor Analog By Design show. They used de-emphasis and pre-emphasis to take PCIe to 100ft IIRC.

I think it was this show:
“Designing Long-Reach Applications with DVI, HDMI, and PCI Express Cable Standards”

CAT5 does not make for a good tow rope.

Single strand can be used as a twist tie. Useful in bundling several cables together.

You can run Component video at HD resolutions, as well as HDMI over cat5.
