Hello,

I used not shielded CAT6 UTP, 24AWG, Greg measured also not shielded
but CAT5 UTP. Impedance is 100 Ohm according all CAT5/6/7 specifications.

Simple 4 : 3 transformers (or better to say BalUns in this case) on our
"usual" mix 73 binocles were used on every pair. I think good
for both 50 and 75 Ohm systems.
