New Arcnet
Never even THOUGHT about arcnet for long dstances. It is amazingly robust.. Why the hell aren't phone companies using it now?

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

New Beats me.
The 1Mbit version of ARCNET works out to 18,000ft RIGHT NOW. With a bit of armtwisting, that spec even runs on twisted (or non-twisted) pairs rather nicely.

And as to why they really are not using it, Tell me, who is/was the primary vendor/inventor of it?

That is only a guess, but NIH* is a thing faced all over the world (including my little part of the world)






NIH* == Not Invented Here.
