the original 100M length was a timing issue there could be 5 hubs propogating signal, & adequate time was required for the signals to propogate 5 segments before collisions. in theory switches would change the equation
Roland > I figured this was the best place to ask this question: What is the primary reason for the 100M limit on copper Ethernet links? Is it related to bit errors/SNR or is there a timing element involved? Something else?
