Extending Network Reach: Methods to Connect Two Ethernet Cables

The discussion revolves around methods to connect two Ethernet cables to extend network reach. Users suggest using RJ-45 plug connectors for a physical connection, while cautioning that such connections may not maintain the required category standards (e.g., Cat 5 or Cat 6), potentially leading to reduced network performance over longer distances. It is emphasized that the total length of the combined cables should not exceed 100 meters to ensure optimal performance. Manual connections are also mentioned as a viable option, though they may result in suboptimal transmission speeds. The importance of maintaining proper wire separation and adhering to electrical standards is highlighted to avoid issues with data transmission.
