[mythtvnz] OT: Cat5e sharing phone and audio - any issues?

[Noel & Di]

Matt
I did  what you are proposing , and suffer a  a small amount of 
interference on audio. I have since discovered Lexomm LCHC300 (PDL 
product) which has individually screened twisted-pair cable with common 
copper braid screen all up 8mm diameter - PERFECT!! you can even run 
composite AV down it at 900Mhz
