Does cable length affect ping?
1543981
Not in actuality, no. Ping is a measurement of how fast data travels along the internet pathways to the server and back. This data is transmitted in the form of electricity, which is traveling at very fast speeds. An average internet connection spans hundreds of miles between the server location and the user, and typically only sees ping around 40 milliseconds (1/1000th of a second). The additional 50 feet of this cable produces no measurable effect on you internet ping and speeds, especially in relation to the scale of things.

The length might work (best to measure) but buy a different cable, as this one is junk (not CAT5 inside)

do not use long cable, wifi router better close to antenna as possible, wifi frequency decay a lot in this kind cable.

Cannot answer precisely as I am in a small townhome with no distance from router exceeding about 20'ft.

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Thank you for posting your question. In the office we have successfully tested three 10-meter cables in a row. There are two possible negatives. The first is that each cable has a hub that conditions the signal after its journey down the cable. These use some of the limited power supplied by the computer, so it is possible that there will not be enough power for your device at the end of the series of cables. This can be solved by attaching a powered hub at the end, then connecting your device to that. Another possible negative is that some video devices like web cameras may have problems with timing over the long distance, and the result may be jittery or have a very slow frame rate.

Yes, You can. Might want to search for a longer cable for better performance.

Yes, however, the length will depend on what 2 rooms the cable is connected to.

I have a 3 ft HDMI going into the device and I have a 12 ft HDMI attached to one of the outputs and I haven't noticed a diminished signal or lag time at all. They are both of the twisted-vein types which are working just fine. Perhaps if you do go with the 25 ft HDMI, there are heavier duty type cables available.

I've used Cat6 and I'm getting 10GB with no problems. Note that I'm use 3 ft cables. Can't say if there would be problems with longer runs.

I've not seen any difference that is noticeable. Just pinged to a device on the remote side and the pings have 2 ms latency, pretty darn fast.

Is does not matter. I recommend you place them as far apart from each other as possible in order to get more range. You should consider purchasing an extended cable.

Well, i actually use some other Ethernet cable I had in the house, that is quite shorter, so I don't have I use the cable the floor board brought, which is super long, thatni use in the studio or giging, most likely your cable is defective. Try a different one

Hi Lisa connecting 2 - 100ft runs is quite long. The techies at the mfg site can tell you about signal lossat that length.Best Regards,Lazz :)

In all honesty unless your goin to have a much longer cable it will make no difference performance wise. So far this give crisp clear signals for me. That length should not be able to make a difference in the performance

My unit is placed no more than six feet from my router. I had no connection problems. I could not tell you what is the maximum range. If the manufacturer has a website, I would check the specifications there.

Maybe the processing speed is a bit slower. But as long as the routing system is in the same room as the room you're gaming in you shouldn't have a problem. Personally, I never got knocked off of the connection while gaming.

My Bridge only covers about 100' from building to building but I detect no latency at all. I can't speak to the maximum distances which are advertised in miles.
