12.4.1. Problems with data transmission via LAN/Ethernet
If problems occur during data transmission over LAN/Ethernet (e.g. data is lost or not
detected), the cause of these problems may be a cable which is too long.
Depending on the cable layout and interference from the environment, it may be
impossible to use the cable length of 100 m given in the specification (IEEE 802.3
standard).
The solution here is the use of a shorter cable.
