Conventions

References in this manual to the 16/24/32 port dual-speed stack-

able Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Hubs are frequently written simply

as “hub” or “hubs” where the text applies to all models. Model

names are normally used only to differentiate between models

where necessary.

Unless differentiated by model name, all information applies to all

1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter introduces the 16/24/32 port dual-speed stackable

Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Hubs, as well as giving some background

information about the technology of the hubs use.

Product Description

The dual-speed stackable Ethernet/Fast Ethernet hubs described

in this manual are designed to allow easy migration and integra-

tion between 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, while

providing manageability and flexibility in cable connections.

These hubs can operate with either IEEE 802.3 10BASE-Tcon-

nections (twisted-pair Ethernet operating at 10 megabits per

second), or IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX connections (twisted-pair

Fast Ethernet operating at 100 megabits per second). All of the

twisted-pair ports support NWay auto-negotiation, allowing the

hub to automatically detect the speed of a network connection.

This means you can connect all of your Ethernet and Fast

Ethernet hosts to any hub in the series, without any rewiring re-

quired when a host is upgraded from 10Mbps to 100Mbps.

The hubs in the series, available in 16-port, 24-port and 32-port

models, can be stacked with up to four hubs in a stack. A stack of

four 32-port hubs gives a total of 128 Ethernet or Fast Ethernet

Introduction

ports. An 16/24/32 port dual-speed stackable Ethernet/Fast

Ethernet Hubs stack operates as a Class II Fast Ethernet re-

peater, allowing it to be linked to another Class II Fast Ethernet

stack in the same collision domain.

In the basic configuration, the 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments are

separate but it can be intercommunicate. Because each unit has

built-in switch, so it can be intercommunicate and stacking up to

four units.

Add-in module is also available, providing 100BASE-FX connec-

tion. The hubs in this series each have one slot for slide-in

module.

Product Features

The list below highlights the features and specifications of hubs in

the series.

♦Compatible with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-TEthernet and

802.3u 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet industry

standards for interoperability with other Ethernet/Fast

Ethernet network devices.

♦Ethernet connections support Category 3 or better twisted-

pair cables.

♦Fast Ethernet connections support both shielded twisted

pair and Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cables.

♦Fast Ethernet connections support a maximum distance of

100 meters from end-station to hub, and a total network di-

ameter of 205 meters.

♦16, 24 or 32 NWay RJ-45 ports for connecting stations to the

network.

Introduction

♦Built-in switch allows bridging between 10Mbps and

100Mbps segments.

♦LED indicators for Power, FX Link/Rx, 100M Activity, 10M

Activity, 10M Collision, 100M Collision, Switch Activity,

10M Link/Rx, and 100M Link/Rx.

♦Two proprietary daisy-chain ports for cascading up to four

hubs to form one logical hub.

♦Uplink port allows easy linking of two Fast Ethernet hub

stacks to further expand your network.

♦Standard-size (19”, 1U height), rack mountable

♦Optional slide-in module: 100BASE-FX (see Chapter 4 :

Making Connections).

♦The total bandwidth of each stack is up to 140Mbps that

includes one 100Mbps segment and four 10Mbps segments.

(If per stack has stacking four units)
