  • I guess the OP is asking for suggestions on how to carry the button signal across a 10m distance so that a microcontroller can sense the state of the buttons.

    For example, each button could be a node on a FDDI ring, with a controller running a TCP stack so that when the button is pressed, it executes an HTTP POST operation on a checkbox widget back to a central server which can then update a web page with the names of the buttons and their current state. The nice thing about a dual ring is that it provides redundancy if you break one of the fibers.
