I have a 130 meter Cat 6 cable run. The computer does not get the signal at the end. Has anyone achieved a 130 meter ethernet cable run? If so, did you amplify the signal? Is there such a thing as an amplified high powered hub? I am having problems and no signal. Any suggestions?
*confused look* Cat-6? No such thing You should use a repeater.
i take advantage of Gigabit and bypass approximately 2 to 3 circumstances faster. If i'm doing multiple records circulate, then i take advantage of cables and close the prompt OFF (in any different case, it might possibly no longer use the cable)
Allegedly, all Cat cables are limited to 100 meters. At that distance you might not get 100mb speed - it will go down to 10mb. I've had no luck amplifying the signal (read: expensive). Best bet is to have a very simple switch or router placed at about the midpoint of the 130 meter run. Cat 6 has better shielding than Cat 5e. Good luck!
Cat 5 or Cat 6 cable has a MAX lenght of 100 meters. The easiest thing to do is cut it in half and at that point add a switch. The switch will then allow another 65 meters and you should be good to go. Just make sure you are following good cable routing practices -- avoiding electrical cables etc.
