In-Reply-To: <199907161301.JAA20604@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Speaking about ethernet performance, doesn't the quality of cable affect it too? I noticed that there are cables that are 350Mhz and higher over the standard CAT5 100Mhz cables. Has anyone used the higher frequency cables and gotten any better results? And generally for CAT5 cable, is there a difference in quality between BerkTek and Belden?
