[QUOTE="chrisc, post: 1162586, member: 746"] Surely the maximum speed of the connection will be limited by the slowest portion of the circuit? A streamer I use has a 100mb LAN port. So what if the Gigabit switch can manage 1000mb? The transmission speed can only be 100mb. Having installed many long lengths of LAN cable (one school's system had one piece to an outbuilding 230m away), I found Cat6 solid copper more reliable and of better construction than anything else. This was installed in 2012 and still works 100% What helped here was to use switches in steel cases, that could be earthed [/QUOTE]
