Speed and Distance Limitations
Serial signals can travel a limited distance at any given bit rate; generally, the slower the
data rate, the greater the distance. All serial signals are subject to distance limits, beyond
which a signal degrades significantly or is completely lost.
Table 2-3 lists the maximum speeds and distances for EIA/TIA-232 signals. This signaling
standard supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds up to 64 kbps.
Balanced drivers allow EIA/TIA-449 signals to travel greater distances than
the EIA/TIA-232 signals. Table 2-4 lists the maximum speeds and distances for
EIA/TIA-449, V.35, X.21, and EIA-530 signals.
