NETGEAR EN104, EN108, EN116 Note:

The following illustration shows cascading hubs together daisy-chain style and indicates the

setting of the Normal/Uplink push button on each hub.

The BNC port on the rear panel of the hub is used for connecting to a thin coaxial segment. You

can connect other Model EN104/EN108/EN116 hubs, servers, workstations, or other devices to

the BNC port. A BNC-T connector is inserted in the port, and the 50 Ω terminator terminates t h e

connection at each end device. By using the BNC port for cascading, you treat each connected hub

as just another node on the coaxial segment .

The separation marks in the coaxial cable between the hubs in this illustration represent the

incorporation of other devices and show that interconnection is not limited to hubs.

Note: Ethernet specifications limit a BNC segment to 30BNC connections, specify a

minimum of 1.64 feet (0.5m) between any two stations, and limit segments to 607 feet

(185 m) in length.
