The idiots setting up the PCs in the rooms are clueless. They wanted 1 switch installed about 500ft from a demark and the other about 475ft. I tried to explain that you can go over 300 ft or the signal degrades too much. They all gave me dumb stares and I had to spend 45 minutes drawing diagrams and trying to explain it. It was about that time I got frustrated and drew them a new layout and told them to have everything moved by 2 if they wanted network connections for their stuff. Damn art college does layouts based on Feng Shui rather than on practicality.
I think I'm going to have to choke a few bitches.
It will work over 300'.
