Distance Limitations for Interface Cables
Caution EIA/TIA-232 is often used at greater distances than specified in Table 2-2 on page 2-4 . If you
understand the electrical problems that can arise and can compensate for them, you might still obtain
good results; however, we recommend that you keep your cable runs within the standard-defined
distances.
Table 2-3 shows the standard relationship between signal rate and maximum distance for EIA/TIA-449,
V.35, and X.21 signals.
Caution The EIA/TIA-449 and V.35 interfaces support data rates up to 2.048 megabits per second (Mb/s).
Exceeding this maximum could result in loss of data and is not recommended.
Table 2-4 shows the standard relationship between signal rate and maximum distance for EIA/TIA-530
and EIA/TIA-530A signals.
