The SuperStack® II Dual Speed Hub 500 is an easy-to-use, 10/100
autosensing manageable and stackable hub (repeater). It is ideal for
users that want the power of Fast Ethernet and the flexibility to connect
10Mbps devices (workstations and other equipment) in the same hub or
stack.
The Dual Speed Hub 500 has 12 or 24 shielded RJ45 10/100 autosensing
ports on the front panel which can both be used to connect 10BASE-T
(Ethernet) or 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet) devices to the hub. There are
two segments (10Mbps and 100Mbps) in the hub, which are linked by a
switch, so your 10Mbps and 100Mbps workstations and equipment can
communicate.
The hub also has two transceiver module slots that can be fitted with a
Management Module, or 3Com 10Mbps or 100Mbps modules to provide
you with additional types of network connection. For information on
what modules can be used, refer to the " Products " section in this guide.
The Dual Speed Hub 500 comes with:
One power cord for use with the Dual Speed Hub 500
Four self-adhesive rubber pads
Mounting kit
A Warranty Registration card for you to fill out and return
The Dual Speed Hub 500 is suited for office use where it can be free
standing, wall-mounted, or rack-mounted (in a wiring closet or
equipment room).

The unit can be powered either from the AC mains supply, or through
an optional 3Com SuperStack II Advanced Redundant Power System
(3C16070). Contact your supplier for details.
To provide maximum flexibility and expandability, the Dual Speed
Hub 500 can be used with a range of other equipment:
Using Cascade Cables, you can connect up to eight Dual Speed
Hub 500 units to form a logical repeater (called a stack ), providing
up to 208 ports per stack. The 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments in
each hub are connected by the Cascade Cables. Using additional
Hot Swap Cascade Units, you can add resilience to the cascade
connections so that you can remove units at any time without it
affecting communication across the other units in the stack.
Using the MDI switch on the front panel, you can connect a
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX unit or stack to the Dual Speed Hub 500.
Using a Dual Speed Hub – PS Hub Cascade Converter Kit, you can
stack Dual Speed Hub 500 units with existing SuperStack II
PS Hubs. The whole stack can be managed as a single entity. The
maximum number of units that you can connect this way to form
a stack is eight.
