Introduction

Network Reliability

To ensure network reliability, each hub monitors their ports for signal quality and automatically disconnects stations transmitting excessive noise, reconnect- ing them when the problem is resolved.

The hubs automatically truncate data packets that exceed the maximum length for IEEE 802.3u, preventing a device from blocking the network by transmit- ting continuous data streams or extra long packets.

The 8-port and 16-port FriendlyNet hubs are ideally designed for small- to medium-sized 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet networks and comply with the IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet standard.

Features

❏Works with Category 5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable

❏Connects up to 8 or 16 100Base-TX segments per hub; one of the ports can be used as an uplink for connecting to another hub or hub stack

❏Automatically partitions ports to isolate port failures

❏Easily mountable in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop

❏Complies with the IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet Standard

❏FCC Class A, CE Mark certification
