5.7.3 NomadLink network cable lengths
In situations where the amplifiers and the NLB 60E will be positioned in different locations at some
distance from each other, or where groups of amplifiers within a single subnet with up to 60 units will be
installed with a distance in between, these general rules may be considered:
Rule 1: The maximum cable length in between any two devices may not exceed 300 meters / 980 feet.
Rule 2: In a non-closed-loop daisy-chained subnet the total maximum cable length is 400 meters / 1300 feet.
Rule 3: In a closed-loop subnet the total maximum cable length is 700 meters / 2300 feet.
5.7.4 Ethernet network cable lengths
The connection between the NLB 60E and your PC is a standard Ethernet network running the TCP/IP proto-
col. Cable distances between NLB 60E and your PC follow standard rules for Ethernet systems.
