Cable Lengths for X.21/V.35 Cables
Serial signals can travel a limited distance without significant
degradation. Slower serial signals can travel farther without degradation
than faster serial signals. Table B-4 shows the maximum cable lengths
you can use to prevent signal degradation at various transmission speeds.

See Table B-4.
a.The GE SFP I/O module uses a range of simple form factor pluggable transceivers (SFPs) to support different
modes and cable lengths.
b.Assembly is superseded by a newer assembly; however, assembly is supported by current software.
