HP Buys 3COM
by Philip Musyoki 13 Nov '09

Seems HP has purchased the network equipment make 3COM. I still remember the good old days when 3COM and USRobotics ruled the IT world. But now this is the end of a sad chapter in te book of what was one of the great equipment makes of the 90s. I just wonder what HP is up to. Now they have surpassed IBM in revenues, what do they really want? Are consumers going to benefit by having a large company like HP dominate the computes, printers, services and networking industry?

Hi anyone who could help out here, Am having issues issues powering a nanostation2. The cable is about 30 meters long (cat5e) but I don't get a connection on the lan side of the POE. If I use a shorter cable it work ok. Just to make sure the cable (30mtrs) works i can use it between a switch and my laptop. Question: Could the utp cable quality which is low so it has high resistance? How can I solve this issue? Could using a cat6 cable help?
