How long of a run can you have and still have high speed connection?

The standard says 102m (~340ft) is allowed, and (all 8 wires of) Cat-6 will let you push 1GHz in each direction. If you go longer, you're violating the Ethernet timing rules (the signal takes too long from one end to the other). A switch in the middle can extend that arbitrarily (just put one every 100m). Hubs don't, actually - this is not a signal attenuation issue, it's a timing one. But nobody uses hubs in high-speed Ethernet anymore.This means, by the way, that you can't just use a longer cable and run it at a "lower speed," like with serial lines. The speed of light is the same no matter how many bits you push through. It may *mostly* work on a longer cable, but it could also randomly grind to a halt.

Strictly speaking you can run Cat6 328 feet. This is a specification of all cat6 which this cable should conform to.

I ran this cable 350 feet underground, and used a fluke to test the connection. It works prefect. Didn't notice any speed drops when I tested it with my laptop.

Maximum length for a 10/100/1000 Base-T network is 100 meters or 328 feet. This is from patch panel to device termination. Placing inline switches or hubs can increase this distance if you need a longer run.

I use this cable for quiet a few long runs around my business. A few from 300 ft to 350 ft and I have one pushing 390 ft. All of these runs are outside between buildings. However they are all underground in conduit. I get good speed but I don't use poe so I don't know that part. I think I'd use conduit outside

Depends on the length of run. Twelve gage multi strand wire is good for up to 100 feet.

I have a run much longer than that but what I used was a HDMI to cat5 or cat6 converter this worked well for me. Works up to 100' if you use cat6 cable for the longer run. These were just over $20 + the cat5 or cat6 cables.

15-20 miles/ hr depends on your weight. You go the fastest on the "hi" mode

I believe that you can but be careful how you configure it. Every time you jump through an extender it introduces some latency. After a few jumps you might be very disappointed in the performance.

Usually a 5 mbps is good enough, but depending on your usage and number of active devices on your network, in some cases 20 mbps would be barely enough.. xBox, streaming on multiple TV ..etc. can affect the performance of your phone power at times. Need to test your speed at Speedtest.net and also don't forget peak usage times during the day/evening when kids come back form school ..etc.

Maybe the processing speed is a bit slower. But as long as the routing system is in the same room as the room you're gaming in you shouldn't have a problem. Personally, I never got knocked off of the connection while gaming.

You could call their customer service, look at their web site. I got charter, 30mps, never had a problem. If I were to guess, it would be about a 2 meg connection

If you have a good router, and connect this to extend the range, the speed not as fast as you would have if connected to router itself, but the speed is not slow, I say it's a moderate speed. ... It's a workable speed of connection.

Fast as long as you have a good connection. Boost is slowing down during early evening hours lately. Carry extra batteries with you.

Cat5 on runs this long for this video with power will have signal loss, you need to be running Cat 6 or Cat 6E. Video signal is too great for a run that is this long. I installed this using baluns at a collision repair shop and the longest run was 150ft. I wouldn't push it much further than that unless you have a powered repeater.

I've ran mine for two and a half hrs straight. Or around 20 miles. I love this system. Good luck.

I get around 20 feet. Of course, this would also be dependent on the device it is paired to.

At the three or gFour highest speeds -Yes. Other speeds are bearable. I run it on the third from highest speed and cannot hear the phone ring.

Sorry, but I have not used it for a long run as a 1000 ftTry using a cat 6 instead.

Yes you will lose signal strength so make sure the run isn't too long. We had a 75 ft run of cat6e that had trouble connecting over the balun.
