RJ21 Port Connector

Used for linking the twelve hub 10BaseT ports directly through a telephone punchdown block; the RJ21 ports are in parallel to the RJ45 ports on the front of the unit, but they cannot be used simultaneously with the RJ45 ports. For example, if port 5 is used on the front panel (RJ45), you cannot also use port 5 on the RJ21 port.

3in1 Port

This is a single port with three different possible media options. The port provides a network link between the hub (not the bridge) and another hub or a network backbone.You can use any one of the three types of connectors:AUI, BNC, or RJ45 In/ Out.
