[net.lan] Ethernet remote repeaters

dorl@uwmacc.UUCP (Michael Dorl) (10/10/84)

The Ethernet specification allows for remote repeaters in
a network connecting segments up to 1000 meters apart.
The total length of such links is limited to 1000 meters.

Does anyone have experience with such repeaters?  What medium 
do these repeaters use?  Who markets them?

Reply by mail and I will summarize.
