Redsteel Cable

Redsteel Cables are an alternate way to transmit redstone power, instead of redstone dust. While expensive, one can carry up to 32 RU of power, and it only loses 0.75 RU per square, allowing it to transmit a current up to 48 blocks away. They are compatible with all conventional redstone machinery. Unlike redstone dust, redsteel cables do not require ground of any sort.

They're crafted with three redsteel Ingots in a row, which gives 6 redsteel cables.

Redsteel cables can be crafted together to make double, triple, or quadruple cables, which can carry two, three, or four times as much power. As a consequence, however, they also lose RU two, three, or four times faster. Crafting two of any level of redsteel with wool of any color insulates it, cutting power loss down by a factor of four. These higher level of cables are only truly useful with generators stronger than the primitive ones, however.
