Wiring Tip
The I2C communication protocol is generally not designed for long-distance communication, but we've discovered a way to significantly extend cable lengths by using standard CAT5 or higher UTP cable. We have successfully installed various sensors across multiple smart home systems using this wiring scheme:
- Sensor Yellow → Blue → SDA
- Sensor Blue → Green → SCL
- Sensor Red → White/Orange → 5V
- Sensor Black → White/Green and White/Blue → GND
The most important part is that SCL and SDA lines must be paired with GND to protect them from interference. This setup leaves you with three free wires, which we sometimes use to connect a 12V sensor, such as a motion sensor or smoke detector. In this case, we use the Orange wire to transmit +12V, while the Brown pair is used to carry the sensor signal itself.
Using a regular CAT5 UTP cable in a careful and sensible manner allows for extended I2C communication distances, with the added benefit of being able to connect additional sensors.
