Recommended cable
It is recommended that a minimum specification of CAT5e is used in new
installations. If the existing cabling is used this may limit the maximum
data rate depending on the cable ratings. In noisy environments the use
of STP cable will offer additional noise immunity.
Maximum network lengths
The main restriction imposed on the Ethernet cabling is the length of a
single segment of the cable, for Copper - UTP/STP CAT 5 cable type,
maximum trunk cable length should be limited to 100 m. If distances
greater than this are required it may be possible to extend the network
with additional switches.
Ethernet set-up parameters
The following section covers the minimum number of parameters
required to be set to establish an Ethernet communication.
