It creates a coil like that, and inductive currents can blow both ends. I mean the miner controller + the rooter.
Wow, rly ? U think there is enough inductive current to blow something ? What u think how long cable needs to be ? And do u have some actual proof that did happen to somebody ?
Only asking coz i do internet networks setup, left cables like that if they are to long many times .
You get like 12V / 1A from induction when hanging a huge coil below a 10000V landline.
So yeah, the odds that a meteorite would crash into your home is probably higher than you blowing anything out because of induced electrical currents.
Yeah that is what i thought so
. I know in theory it can happen but, i mean that like 10m of UTP cable cant do no harm. You have no idea how a thunder can screw you by inductive fields.
Happened to my shop last year, all cameras, printers and fax, usb sides on pcs got blown by a thunder hit a mile away.
I dont care if you dont do your research, it is your equipment do as you wish.
ps. Micro, you are an expert in network setups, huh? Do you have some actual proof?
Um... They would all probably get blown even if ur cables are short and straight
? ps. I never said im an expert
. Did i ? I just do some smaller network setups when there is need for that, not an expert in that area.
