[QUOTE="mackerr, post: 23260, member: 307"] Re: Holy Data Transfer Batman!!! That 300' is not with today's technology, which is limited to about 30'. When the transmission media is fiber optics the length will go up. The fiber specified in that article will not actually be 125 microns, that is the jacket diameter of current fibers, the actual fiber is either 62µ or 50µ for multimode fiber, or 6µ for single mode fiber. To get the kind of bandwidth they are talking about it will need to be single mode fiber (or maybe a new smaller fiber in the future). Mac [/QUOTE]
