[pmrid (Peter)]

I'm having a serious Spring-Clean (yes, I know it's autumn) in my obs in conjunction with a re-engineering of the way the roof rolls on and off.

Since all the furniture and non-fixed items have now been removed for that exercise, the opportunity is there for me to look at re-routing scope power and data cables as well. The obs has a raised wooden floor (only 250mm raised though, so sub-floor access is limited).

I'd like to look at making my data cabling a little less chaotic and am therefore wondering what others think about routing data (USB) with power in the same conduit. Bad news? What about ethernet cables and power or USB. Another no-no?

I have a couple of those Gigabit enthernet USB hubs I'm thinking of using in conjunction with the scopes/guidecams and imaging cams - hence the interest in ethernet cabling.
