What I want is a box where I can put 3 groups of 4 rs485 plugs, 2 inputs and 1 output. Since the rs485 is a pair I need 4x2=8 for each port, then 3 ports, so I actually need 24 poles. Then with this box I have 2 sources feeding the the box and I can switch between each.
A good idea to use power on the cable, but the cable only has signals from RS485 chips. Don't know if you can take power from that without attenuating the signal?
Hello All, I'm making an A-B switch (so I can switch between channel A and B) but I need the switch to have 20 poles. Do any of you know a company that make these? I found this one so far but the wafer switch seems weak.

I'm looking at thermal material and it advertises a 'low modulus'. I read that the modulud of elasticity is the amout of force required to stretch a material, but in this case I think it's the amount of force to compress a material, because the more it is compressed, ie the thinner it is, the...
