I would say it's overkill, but considering the price of switches these days
I say go for it :)  You can even repeat this five or six times if you really
need to.  After that get a fiber converter and go glass ;)

Subject: OT:Switch boosts ethernet?

Calling wiring gurus!

Maximum ethernet connection length is approx. 300 feet.  If I need to get to
400 feet, can I just put a switch in the middle of two 200 foot cables?
