Hi
Does anyone know where I can get multiconductor wire similar to stewmacs, but with 5 conductors and a ground instead of 4?
Thanks
Evan

Shielded CAT 5 or 6 would have 4 twisted pairs and a shield and is very affordable because it is made by so many and in such huge quantities.

Mouser Electronics should have it.

Hi
thanks for the tips. I couldn't seem to find what I was looking for at mcmaster or mouser. The od of the wire always ends up large when I find what I want. I ordered some 4 conductor from allparts, and I am hoping the spool will have some info so I can contact the manufacturer and find what I want. If I do I will post what I find out.
Thanks
Evan

Hi,
Thanks again to everyone for the suggestions. I ended up contacting Gavitt Wire. They were very nice and helpfull. They even sent me a sample to make sure it was what I needed. It was, so problem solved.
Thanks
