No. Fibre optic can take a much higher data rate than copper without significant degradation and it is that which causes the increase in speed of data transmission. John Weller 01380 723235 07976 393631 So replacing the old copper with fiber optic is making it slower? lol -- Mike

[NF] Signal delivery over long ethernet cable

2010-11-05 Thread MB Software Solutions, LLC
I know for electricity extension cords, sometimes the power drops over really long cords. Do really long ethernet cords have a similar drop of the signal they carry? I'm talking about 25 feet of cable. Would the user have a better signal/speed if she were right at the router in my home
