Detailed explanation-1: -Standards for cable distance recommend that Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6a cables have a maximum cable segment run length of 100 meters or 328 feet. The cable distance specifications are part of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) and Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standards.
Detailed explanation-2: -In general the length should not be more than 100 meters (328 ft) to avoid data loss.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ethernet-100 meters (328 feet) There are a few different versions of ethernet cable, but they all have a maximum distance of 100 meters (328 feet). It should be noted that Cat7 cable has harsher distance limits than Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a.
Detailed explanation-4: -According to the IEEE specification (IEEE 802.3bp) and at the time of writing (early 2022), the maximum distance is 40 meters on unshielded twisted pair.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ethernet segments are limited to lengths of 100 meters because stations connected to Ethernet share a communication medium. If two stations send messages at the same time, both signals distort and become unreadable.
