So, up until now, I've mostly just relied on switch vendors telling me whether or not a switch is considered "long pole". I didn't (until recently) connect that this is (maybe not always?) related to travel distance. Is that it? Or are there more factors in play?
So, at what point should I consider using long pole stabs, such as from TX (which I think are 1mm taller?)? If the travel distance is closer to 3mm than 4mm? Some other reason?
Thanks!
