Super ContributorHi,
there's no specific limitation "by protocol". You'll however experience data rate depending signal attenuation and waveform distortion. Presuming impedance matched and correctly terminated differential cable, you can achieve 10 m distance for 100 to 200 MBPS. The other possible limitation is common mode noise and voltage offset in case of inter-instrument communication. Consider that standard network interfaces like Ethernet use transformer coupling to get rid of common noise.
