That will be the next "greatest" invention for high speed networks. We are already using Coax for DS3 terminations from the DMARC to the Data Center.

If you run 50 stop signs at 40 mph without incident, it does not mean that you won't get a wreck on the next one. The only cabling that will not experience EMI (electromagnetic interference) is fiber optic, and that is because it is using light, not electricity. I'll bet if you shine a strong enough light on a fiber optic cable you will have problems too! Of course, that would probably melt everything in the vicinity!

I had two users in the same office running cat 5 at 100mb speed on identical machines. One user was complaining that his network performance was slow at times. I ran bandwidth tests on both machines. The good machine ran at constantly at 88 mb throughout put. The problem machine would vary from 18 mb to 85 mb though output. We traced the problem and found the wire that was ran over a florescent light in the bath room. The bathroom light was on a motion sensor. So every time someone went to the bathroom he would have bandwidth problems.

Four ft away is 4 times worse than 2 feet. Bill On Mon, Oct 5, 2009 at 11:44 AM, Dennis McGrath <[email protected]> wrote: Exactly!
