    Write something more what this cable connects (power, Ethernet, antenna)
    If it is a typical Ethernet, it is max 100m, although there are some who connected it at longer lengths.

    the cable can be up to 100 meters long, and if it is distant from interfering sources and made of Category 6 cable, you can pull out a little more

    Ethernet connects the cable has 8 wires on both sides and is connected in the same way

    No more than 40-45 meters. If you give more, you may have trouble with the connection.

    My colleague could use a bit of reading, not only from the scope of the network, but also from the spelling rules.
    If it's typical ethernet, then from device to device 100m.

    Please do not write stupidity here because I have been setting up networks for 5 years. As for my spelling, I don't know, it's all well written. From what I can see you have a spelling problem and you can't write the word "range".

    After the report
    Please use Polish diacritics in your statements - ą, ę, ś, ł etc.

    I have exactly 112 meters in category 5 and it works without any problems. You just need to avoid interference, for example, so that the UTP cable does not run parallel to the network cables, especially those with high currents, because there are actually problems then. When I changed the cable route (which made it longer by about 10m) it is now incomparably better.

    It all depends on the conditions.

    Hello everyone, I have a connection made at a distance of 230m (exactly!) On a telephone cable in a lead sheath 10-pair (20 wires) located in the ground between two buildings, a remnant of the old telephone exchange and I have been working for 5 years configuration: in 1 building 10Mbit 3Com HUB in Switch 100Mbit 3Com building on the uplink. 8Mbit max flashes but very slowly, but it is enough for the Internet.

    Added after 14 [minutes]:

    By the way, if a colleague needs to set up equipment at a greater distance than 100m, I suggest using 10Mbit HUBs, a slow connection but really effective, I used 2 weeks to match the equipment to this telephone cable and it always flashed without a problem on the HUBs. 10Mbit equipment uses 4 pairs of wires, not 2, like 100Mbit. If someone does not believe me that it works at a distance of 230m, please contact me on priva, we will make an appointment and you will be able to see it visually. Regards.

    UTP cat. 5 (e) cable, i.e. the popular twisted pair - max. 100 meters, but I have known cases where it worked at 150 or more ;)
    "Antenna" cable (H155) from the WiFi antenna to the AP or computer - as short as possible, transmitting at 2.4 GHz max 5 m, receiving 2.4 GHz max 10 m.
    Regards

    Please do not mislead the forum users, just read the standard contained in the EIA / TIA-568 guidelines and do not list demagogic phrases (does the fact that you have been setting up networks for 5 years prove anything? - probably not, because your statements prove that you don't know what you are doing). AND

    you can have it when you step up ... (link in Silesian slipper).
    The standard allows a maximum of 100m of a twisted pair cable from device to device for 10 and 100 Mb Ethernet networks and ensures that if the cable is laid in accordance with the requirements, such capacity will be achieved on it. And for noise suppression, shielded cable is available.
    And of course, you can put longer cables and not necessarily the twisted pair, but then you should not expect full capacity.

Topic summary

The discussion centers around the feasibility of using cables longer than 30 meters with the BR-6204WG router. It is established that standard Ethernet cables, particularly Category 5 and 6, can support lengths up to 100 meters without significant issues, provided they are installed away from interference sources. Some users report successful connections at lengths exceeding 100 meters, with one user mentioning a 230-meter connection using a telephone cable. However, it is advised that for optimal performance, especially in high-interference environments, lengths should ideally not exceed 40-45 meters. The importance of using shielded cables for noise suppression is also highlighted.
