Extending the Network with STP/BNC Connections

Extend your network by connecting any of the hubs in a stacked system to other compatible hubs using the STP and/or ALT port connections. In the diagram below, a stand-alone hub is connected to hub 5 in the stacked system using the STP connection. The other stand-alone hub is connected to hub 8 in the stacked system using a BNC connection. However, the EtherHub 1500 Agent can only manage hubs connected to it through the FlexBus 1500 connection.
