Ultrasonic Sensor Signal Cable Extension (Question to answer only!)
Budget: $10 – $30 AUD
I have a JSN-SR04T ultrasonic sensor that needs its signal cable extended to 8 meters. It's important that the extension is reliable and does not cause any signal loss, as the sensor will be used indoors to integrate with an existing system.
Cable type is solid CAT5e on the unused wires in existing cable which carry intermittent load 24v AC (2x360mA maximum). If that is a problem i can make dedicated cat5e cable will be in the same conduit. The conduit also runs along side another carrying 240v if that needs to be factored into it. is for a water tank.
If not are there a recommendation as to item to use that will e suitable to read water level from a tank that will not need power closer than 8m. Even if a different type of sensor. This is to be connected to an ESP32 at 8m distance. Must be reliable.
Key Requirements:
- Extend the ultrasonic sensor signal cable to 8 meters without signal loss.
- Ensure the extension is reliable, maintaining the sensor's functionality.
- The system is located indoors, so the extension cable doesn't need to be waterproof.
Ideal Freelancer:
- Experience with signal/echo cable extension for JSN-SR04T ultrasonic sensors.
- Skilled in creating reliable cable extensions without signal loss.
- Understanding of integrating sensors into existing systems.
