Hey peeps...

I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer to. You know that in a 10Base5 network, the transcievers along the cable MUST be spaced at 2.5 meters. What they don't say is WHY

they have to be spaced at exactly 2.5 meters. What kind of problems do you run into when they are not spaced exactly. Also, what about 10Base2? Those have like a .5 meter spacing. Any help would be GREATLy appreciated guys.

ThankS!
Keith
