That's not true. Serial cable can go for a good many feet before the
signal breaks down (someone should pipe in with actual data ;)
I've got a RS232 cable running 30 feet from down here to the upstairs
radio shack so I can have the PDP emulator upstairs and the terminal
down here. Works fine up to 57600 but won't do 115200. The terminal
only goes up to 19200 so that's ok.
