Your cable length performance will be affected by a number of factors
including the quality of the cables used, and the number of devices such as
cable couplers used or passive wall panel interconnections in use. Use Cat‑5e
cable for best performance wherever possible. Stranded or solid Cat‑5e cable
can be used.
When using the optional AN‑16SBR System Bridge, the cable length
specification applies to the total cable length between the two A‑Net devices
being connected with the AN‑16SBR System Bridge. This is similar to what
happens when using an inline coupler to extend cable lengths.

Pre‑made cables in a variety of lengths and colors are available at most
computer outlets. Cables can be extended by using a simple passive device
called an inline coupler to add length to existing cables (as long as you do not
exceed the specified maximum cable length). If you need a longer cable on
occasion, this is a simple solution. Note that it is possible that the maximum
