I assume 1000’ of cable would force a low baud rate. (perhaps 300) Is it a valid to assume that is intended use of RS232 today?

RS-232 normally is limited to 15 meters of cable, and that was not considered to be telecom length. But, the Australian committee claimed that there were installations with 1000 feet of cable. Not running at full speed, obviously. Thus the qualifying phrase.

The note to this section makes it clear that USB ports are not to be considered telecom ports. The above however does assume that the USB port is being used for its normal role of interconnecting components of an IT system. I'm sure someone will come up with a scenario whereby it could be considered to be a telecoms port! Mike Gartman, Richard wrote: In EN55022 there is a reference to a Telecommunication port. Is a USB connection considered a Telecommunication port? The USB has a power and two data lines. Does this make it a telecommunication port? Thank you for you assistance W.
