IMAPS presentation by Jim Foppiano has comprehensive comparison of
measured time-domain waveforms and W-element simulations for a Gigabit
transceiver design, including long cables and traces.

A pointer to the presentation was posted on the SI list few months ago,
I included a copy below. It is still available for download.

Hi,

        If anyone needs to download the imaps presentation please access
my freedrive account at http://www.freedrive.com.

        login: tarek
        password: tarek

        And you can download the ppt file from the imaps folder.
        Most email systems will not permit files above 5 Meg, and this
file is 10 Meg.

        Thanks,
