1/2 duplex has a potential for collisions hence the distance is set by the
requirement for 512 bit intervals between transmissions??
full duplex the limit is set by the physical characteristics of the fiber??
well thats my guess

This has to do with the "bit budget" constraint in the CSMA/CD protocol.
The collision detection part of the CSMA/CD protocol only works while
ethernet devices are transmitting data. If any collision happens after
transmission then that collision is termed a "late collision" and will not
cause et
