DP83TC811S-Q1: Max cable lenght

Part Number: DP83TC811S-Q1

Hi,

My customer would like to evaluate DP83TC811S-Q1 for a new commercial vehicle project and they asked about the max cable length that the device can support at 100Mbit data rate.

Could you please comment?

Best Regards,

Caglar

  • Hi Caglar,

    Please refer to section 96.7 in IEEE 802.3bw for more details on length requirements. 

    "The link segment for a 100BASE-T1 PHY system is defined as in Figure 96–28, which consists of up to 15 m of single balanced twisted-pair cabling, with up to four in-line connectors and two mating connectors."

    Thank you,

    Cecilia
