Coaxial cables (required for XGA applications and recommended for
most other applications) do much better at maintaining video quality, as shown in
Table 4-3 below. (For the meaning of quality numbers 3, 2, and 1, see the bottom
of the previous page.) As before, the distances in the table are total cable lengths
measured from the CPU to the monitor. Also as before, the table assumes a single
ServSwitch is between the CPU and monitor; if there is a submaster as well, video
quality will always be lower.

Quality 3 = Near perfect; screen defects are not conspicuous

around text lettering depending on the color; screen defects are
sometimes conspicuous
