Need some input from experts on a simple
question.
I have a home office with seven servers and desktop
systems connected via coax Ethernet -- BNC female end cables with
T-connectors. I want to change to Cat 5 cabling throughout (all my NICs
support both BNC and RJ45 connections) except that I have one coax run that goes
through my ceiling and would be difficult to replace.
Question: is there an adapter that I could
install on each end of the ceiling run cable to convert it for use with RJ45
everywhere else? Are Baluns adapters intended for this purpose? Will
using the existing length of coax cable do anything to overall net
performance?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
