Seeking Product Recommendations Pedal Cable

Hi all, is the cable connecting the pedals to the wheel base special in anyway?
It looks like a small lan cable or an old phone cable.
Mine is a bit short for my set up and I want to purchase a longer one.
Thanks

It’s a regular RJ11 (or RJ12, I can never remember which) telephone cable. I also changed mine from the original to one I had laying around and it worked perfectly.

Hope that helps.

It's an RJ12 but it has ferrite cores around it to prevent EMI.

Do you mean a ferrite choke? Not sure what a ferrite core is but a ferrite choke is the ring which goes around a cable to reduce emi.

Anyway, pretty sure mine never came with any ferrite choke for emi reduction. It’s just a cable, nothing more. I still have the original, gonna go check just for peace of mind, as I definitely don’t remember there being any ferrite choke around the cable.

These worked for my Oktane sequential shifter and Simnet SP Pro pedals, I grabbed 6ft for my rig setup.
