That&amp;#x27;s not DC, but it&amp;#x27;s definitely slow enough to run on some pretty dodgy wiring. It will only switch to higher speed modes if requested, and if it actually works (falling back to lower speeds otherwise).</text></comment>

A couple of MHz is pretty typical and this sort of wiring is no problem at those speeds.&lt;p&gt;Definitely no need for a shielded cable either.</text></comment>
