The standard distance will depend upon the railroad. However, in the US, a typical wayside signal is placed with its center 15 feet from the track. This provides adequate clearance for multiple types of signals and trains. Railroads also have "low signals" that can be placed very close to the tracks, as they fit under the "clearance envelope" for the train cars. These low signals have limited use and are not used on main line track.

Hub to hub maximum distance?

The standard Ethernet cables (UTP) basically limits the maximum distance between hubs, or between switches, or between a hub and a switch, to about 100 meters. If you use a longer cable than that, the signal will degrade too much, and the network may become unstable.The standard Ethernet cables (UTP) basically limits the maximum distance between hubs, or between switches, or between a hub and a switch, to about 100 meters.
