Frequently asked questions

What sort of cable should I use for SuperMAC and HyperMAC?

For short distances, standard unscreened Cat 5 cable is fine. For longer distances, up to 100 metres (the maximum specified by the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard for twisted-pair copper cables), we recommend the use of high-grade Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable.
