Hello Ken,
Replying to a message of Ken Pimontel to Chris Hammond:
 >> difference in 'workable distance' between UTP and coax?
 CH>> Yes there is a distance limitation.
 CH>> COAX - Approx 600'
 CH>> UTP  - Approx 300' (This one may be off a little)
 KP> Might sound stupid, but is this meters, inch, ...
 KP> Thank you for responding.
600' is the same notation as 600 feet.  In meters, 600' and 300' translate to 
approximately 200 metres (closer to 185 meters though) and 100 meters.
Regards, Alec
