Product Description

The dual-speed standalone Ethernet/Fast Ethernet hub is designed to
allow easy migration and integration between 10Mbps Ethernet and
100Mbps Fast Ethernet, while providing flexibility in cable
connections.
The device can operate with both IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T connections
(twisted-pair Ethernet operating at 10 megabits per second) and
IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX connections (twisted-pair Fast Ethernet
operating at 100 megabits per second). All of the twisted-pair ports
support Auto-Negotiation (NWay), allowing the hub to automatically
detect the speed of a network connection.
The hub has 8 ports and can have a single uplink connection to
another 100BASE-TX Class II Fast Ethernet repeater (hub or hub
stack).
On the hub, the 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments are separate and do
not intercommunicate. The device contains a built-in switch, making
it possible to transparently bridge between the 10Mbps and 100Mbps
segments.
