I need to run 750 feet of Cresnet to a boat house for some lighting control. I read in another thread that people have used a Liberty equivalent. The part number is LLINX-U-DB. Who distributes Liberty Cable here in Canada? Note: Cable needs to be Direct Burial

I used Cresnet because the Liberty was more expensive here. Staub used to have an ICE Cresnet equivalent. Trends Electronics in Vancouver does liberty.

I always use decent cables but don't even bother mentioning them in quotes. Theyre just part of the installation cost. To me it's pathetic to rely on selling expensive cables just because they add to the margin.

I just do web orders so I don't know about dealing with the reps - I never had a problem I had to call about. But I didn't notice ANY price changes like you are hinting to, not in the 12+ years I've been dealing with them. Unless you are talking about the massive copper price increase many years ago. And that was everybody, not just Liberty.

Seems like no one carries cresnet in direct burial. Would an 18/2 and a 22/2 shielded work at 750 feet?

A few day ago I got a price list from Sound Developments in Richmond, BC. So I believe they are the new Canadian distributer.

Do it with DB coax, media converters, and use the Ethernet to Cresnet bridge they just came out with. 2-for-1 deal on that one, you can use the Ethernet to give them WiFI at the boathouse too.

Well, Sound Developments is the Liberty distributor. I purchased 1000 feet at 700.00 (OUCH). Glad it ain't my dime :) Thanks everyone for the input!!!
