1. INTRODUCTION

This guide is intended for the system or network administrator responsible for installing and monitoring a TRANSITION Networks LAN Master™ TX-8 100BASE-TX 8-Port Hub. A working knowledge of local area network (LAN) operations, including familiarity with communications protocols used on interconnected LANs, is assumed.

The LAN Master™ TX8 Hub

The LAN Master™ TX8 100BASE-TX 8-Port Hub (HB-E-TX-8) is a Fast Ethernet repeater designed to meet IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX standards.

LAN Master™ TX8 Hub Features

Eight RJ-45 100BASE-TX ports for Fast Ethernet connectivity

Port #8 provides LAN Master™ TX8-to-LAN Master™ TX8 MDI/MDI-X uplink option

19-inch rack mountable

Auto partitioning of ports with excessive collisions

Fully automatic preamble regeneration

Internal universal input power supply

FAST ETHERNET (IOOBASE-X)

CABLE SPECIFICATIONS

Due to the limited collision domain in 100BASE-X, use the shortest cables possible to make a connection between any two devices. Where collisions are not a consideration (full duplex), longer cable may be possible.

Effective cable distances are determined by ambient RF noise and by signal loss in the cable. Since fiber has low signal loss/meter and invulnerability to RF noise, fiber is the preferred medium for extending distances.

100BASE-FX Cable and Connector Specifications

The physical characteristics of the 100BASE-FX cable must meet or exceed IEEE 802.3 100BASE-FX specifications.
