MAXIMUM CABLE LENGTH
Two cable lengths are defined for the repeaters,
Lobe Length
and
Trunk Length
.
Lobe Length
- The lobe length is the physical length of the cable
connecting a station to its TCU port at the repeater. Table 2-3 shows
the maximum lobe length, according to ring speed for each
repeater. The cable lengths listed in the table a total length of the
cable that is made up of a single cable type.
Trunk Length
- The maximum trunk cable length between
repeaters or between a repeater and another active device is equal
to the maximum drive distance (refer to Table 2-4). When the
neighboring token ring device is a passive device, the combined
length of the connecting trunk cable and twice the longest lobe
cable attached to the passive ring segment cannot exceed the
maximum drive distance.
