ThinLAN Cable Requirements
If you add an HP J2608A ThinLAN Transceiver Module, the thin coaxial
cables used with the module must comply with the IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base2
requirements. Some RG-58 A/U or RG-58 C/U cables meet these
requirements.
The maximum length of a single thin coaxial cable segment is 185 meters.
The minimum length (for example, to connect adjacent hubs in a rack) is 0.5
meter.
