Put a fiber transceiver in building A. At least 10 foot away, put in a 2nd transceiver and connect THAT to the CAT5 going to building B. Connect A & B wallwarts to different breakers, with surge protectors....and stock spares.o
That's an amazingly expensive optoisolator. Seriously, though, that's exactly what you're describing, and about what I'd suggest in a no-other-option scenario -- but if it's possible to pull fiber through the conduits, it would probably be far less expensive long term, or even medium term if the physical fiber spools can be bought cheaply enough. -- -- Todd Vierling <tv () duh org> <tv () pobox com> <todd () vierling name>
