PJRC OctoWS2811 adaptor for Teensy 3.1 USB development board *new*

This adapter board connects the Teensy 3.1 to up to thousands of WS2811/WS2812 (a.k.a NeoPixel) LEDs using the OctoWS2811 Library.

It features a 74HCT245 buffer chip and 100 ohm series matching resistors. A CAT6 Ethernet cable is used to connect this board to the LED strips. A CAT6 cable is designed for very high bandwidth, minimal cross-talk between twisted pairs, and 100 ohm impedance, for a very high quality signal. Just to make things simple one Ethernet cable has 4x pairs so two cables will transmit 8x pairs in total and that means, that you can transfer 4+4 different LED group signals where ever you want to.
