	RJ21-CAT5 distance
What is the maximum distance we can run RJ21-CAT5 25pair cable without enduring cross talk signal drop. Is it similar to standard CAT 5 4 pair of 100m or CAT5e 350m
	Answer by Joseph Golan posted 14 Oct 2005
Dear PAUL, All the same rules apply: 90 meters (295') for the link (cable run); 100 meters (328') for the channel (including equipment and patch cords). BTW category 5e is the same, not sure where you got 350m from but that is incorrect Sincerely, Joseph Golan, RCDD
