Did you do any testing of collision detection enabled, PLCA disabled?

You say you think this is noise related. But the noise should be the
same with or without PLCA. I'm just thinking maybe collision detection
is just plain broken and should always be disabled?

I've not read much about T1S, but if we assume it is doing good old
fashioned CSMA/CD, with short cables the CS bit works well and the CD
is less important. CD was needed when you have 1000m cable, and you
can fit 64 bytes on the 1000m cable. So always turning of CD might be
appropriate.
