Detailed explanation-1: -And that’s because the Power over Ethernet was designed with the 100m limitation in mind, so going past that length will mean that the voltage will drop leading to an unstable connection to your PoE devices.
Detailed explanation-2: -Conclusion. To put it simply, the data transmission speed of ethernet network cables remains constant as long as they are run at their specified lengths. However, running cables longer than their recommended lengths reduce the data transmission speeds.
Detailed explanation-3: -UTP Ethernet Extenders Network devices such as UTP extenders make it possible to extend your ethernet network using UTP cables. Depending on the pair cabling within specific cables and the device’s size, UTP Ethernet Extenders can expand your network up to 2.5 kilometers or 1.5 miles.
Detailed explanation-4: -For Ethernet copper cabling when used for 10/100/1000BASE-T, the maximum allowed length of a Cat 5e / Cat 6 cable is 100 meters (328 ft).
