<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — is a 15 to 20ft ethernet cable to long]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/18260/is-a-15-to-20ft-ethernet-cable-to-long/ Sun, 12 Jan 2020 10:53:01 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: is a 15 to 20ft ethernet cable to long]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/152355/#p152355 The specification for Cat5e cable is 100m (330ft,) but you may find errors causing network speed to slow down at this extreme. 5m, or 150 ft, works well draped under and around a house up to 100Mbps. We used to regularly run 100m on minesites and the like.

Carl, some of the smoothie based boards have an RJ45 port and built in web interface.

Though dubbsd could still mean USB.

dubbsd, if you truly mean Ethernet, the max length between nodes is 328 feet (100 m).  Longer runs will start to suffer from attenuation which will result in errors and re-sends slowing down the connection.
