    Default extension cable

    Can't find a extension cable for use with the humidity-temp.sensor.
    Where to buy, or else what to do?
    (female RJ12 jacks are not on the market to my knowledge, so making - without soldering- an extension myself is not an option)

    Help!

    You can use a standard cable male-male and a coupling female-female - I think, you can get that in every phone store

    Not 100% right. There are some coupling female-female on market witch have some crossed wires inside. If you buy one of this you will damage the sensor and the Profilux.

    Wirus, telephone plugs are 4/2 or 4/4, I need 6/6 (RJ12)
    Martin, like I said: there are no female 6/6 plugs on the market as far as I know.
    So, what to do? Just cut the cable and and make an extension by soldering?

    The shown one is a WB 2X6-6 RJ12 from a german dealer for electronic components. It has the needed 6 contacts.

    If you search for ISDN equipment, you may find the needed coupler. But, as Marin said: Check that it´s 1:1

    ISDN has usually 8 pins

    why don't you just buy our extension cables? VSL-2, 5 or 10

    Thanks Matthias, I am new in this field. The extension of the hum-temp sensor is not mentioned for the VSL cables, that's why I missed it.

    Thanks to all of you for your help.
    Problem solved!
