1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter introduces the 16/24 port stackable Fast Ethernet
Hubs, as well as giving some background information about the
technology of the hubs use.
Product Description
Ideal for establishing or enlarging a Fast Ethernet LAN work-
group, the Stackable Fast Ethernet Hub provides port density
options from 16 to 190. The hub is IEEE 802.3u compliant and
falls into the Class II Fast Ethernet hub type. The ports on the
hub are standard RJ-45 connectors for use with Category 5 UTP or
STP cabling.
The hubs in the series, available in 16-port and 24-port models,
can be stacked with up to four hubs in a stack. A stack of four 24-
port hubs gives a total of 96 Fast Ethernet ports. A 16/24 port
stackable Fast Ethernet Hubs stack operates as a Class II Fast
Ethernet repeater, allowing it to be linked to another Class II Fast
Ethernet stack in the same collision domain.

Product Features
The list below highlights the features and specifications of hubs in
the series.
♦ Compatible with the 802.3u 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX
Fast Ethernet Class II repeater standards for inter-
operability with other Fast Ethernet network devices.
♦ Uses Category 5 UTP or STP cabling.
♦ Up to 100 Meters of cable length between any com-
puter and the hub with a maximum of 205 meters of
cable between any two network nodes.
♦ 16 or 24 100Mbps Fast Ethernet ports.
♦ LED indicators for Power, FX Link/Rx, 100M Activity,
100M Collision and 100M Link/Rx.
♦ Scalable stack containing up to 4 units for a total 64
or 96 (depending on model) 100Mbps UTP/STP ports.
♦ 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).
♦ Automatic voltage selection (100V to 240V, 50~60Hz)
