Hi,I'm designing an Ethernet controller chip which has a 10M/100M PHY.I found a problem when I test it by using category 5 cabling.It work abnormal When the category 5 cabling is longer than 70m(It should work normal at 100m).It is very convenient if I have a Twisted-pair model which can work like 100m or anyother length category 5 cabling to do test.
There is a test model I found in IEEE 802.3 standard.But Idon't know it was equivalent to how long twisted-pair in real,50m or 100m or anyother length?
Someone said that this model it just used to intended to model certain properties of an ethernet twisted pair in a hardware test?but it can't match to a real piece of hardware.
