George -- The information provided in the link you gave is accurate. Keep in mind that the CSMA/CD aspect of Gigabit Ethernet only comes into play when a half-duplex link is established. Full-duplex (the norm for switch-to-switch and switch-to-node) connections do not utilize CSMA/CD and therefore can operate at distances of up to 550 meters over multimode and at least 3 kilometers over sigle mode fiber. This is explained in the white paper published by the Gigabit Ethernet Alliance (GEA). A link to this paper is available on John's site.
