Hi all,
I have one query regarding extending UTP cable beyond 100 meters. I have one PC , which is about 150 meters away from nearest HUB location.Now as UTP cabling support only upto 100 meters, what solution I can implement to extend connectivity to this node?
Can I put one additional HUb/switch somewhere inbetween existing HUb and PC? How much UTP cabling distance it will support?

Yes, you can put another switch in place and it will give you another 100 m.
