•Use standard LAN cables to connect PCs to the Switching Hub ports on the TW100- BRV204 . Both 10BaseT and 100BaseT connections can be used simultaneously.
•If required, you can connect any LAN port to another Hub. Any LAN port on the TW100- BRV204 will automatically function as an "Uplink" port when required. Just connect any LAN port to a normal port on the other hub, using a standard LAN cable.
•If desired, connect a PC (server) to the DMZ port. To use multiple servers, use a standard LAN cable to connect the DMZ port to a normal port on another hub, and connect your servers to the hub. PCs connected to the DMZ port are isolated from your LAN.
