ChainDuino

the Daisy-Chainable Arduino-Compatible board

Courtesy/Thanks to: Michael Tedeschi

Description: Have you ever wanted to connect lots of Arduino boards using just Cat5? Now you can. Arduino + PoE + RS485 = ChainDuino

The ChainDuino is a daisy-chainable, Arduinoâ„¢ compatible development board that allows you to easily connect multiple boards together with standard Cat5 cable. The boards communicate using built-in RS-485 circuitry, and share power using passive PoE+ over the same Cat5 cable! Adding boards to the chain is as simple as programming them with the Arduinoâ„¢ IDE, and plugging them in. And yes, the entire ChainDuino platform will be open hardware and open source.
