[AusNOG] Cable length limits?

[Beeson, Ayden]

IIRC the standard maximum channel length is 100m, but they allow for up to 5m patch leads on each end, hence the 90m permanent link limit.

Thanks,
Ayden Beeson

Back when I was learning the ropes I recall being told something similar... 100m limit for cat5 (I don't think c5e was around at the time).  And due to this I tend to stick to it but can't for the sake of me remember exactly who what where when or why.
Hmm, My recollection is 300ft, which works out to just 91.44 meters.
