Installing the Hub

Installing and Configuring Your Hub

Installing the Hub

You can connect up to 30 hubs together on a common ThinLAN segment. The ThinLAN segment can include a computer attached to a hub at one end of the segment that can communicate with a computer attached to another hub at the other end of the segment. By using the BNC port on the module, the maximum repeater hop-count increment through the entire segment is only two. The following illustration shows you how to connect three hubs together from one ThinLAN port to another.

Each ThinLAN cable segment must be terminated using a 50-ohm terminator at each end. In the illustration above, a 50-ohm terminator is placed at each end of the cable segment.
