The BayStack 60-12T/60-24T 10/100 Ethernet Hubs provide flexibility in
configuring your network. You can use the hubs in a standalone configuration, or
in multiple hub configurations to utilize your existing Ethernet and Fast Ethernet
equipment. You can stack the hubs on top of each other on a flat surface, or mount
them in standard 19" equipment racks. In addition to attaching your hub to
workstations or printers, you can extend your current local area network (LAN) by
connecting a BayStack 60-12T/60-24T 10/100 Ethernet Hub to a collapsed
backbone device such as a switch or a router.
This chapter discusses various environments where you can use the BayStack
60-12T/60-24T 10/100 Ethernet Hub, such as environments which have a mixed
network of 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s devices.

Mixed 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s Environment

The BayStack 60-12T/60-24T 10/100 Ethernet Hub runs at both 10 Mb/s and
100 Mb/s simultaneously. Devices running at 10 Mb/s and devices running at
100 Mb/s are located on separate network segments within one BayStack 60-12T/
60-24T 10/100 Ethernet Hub. These two segments communicate with the internal
switching hardware, which is built in to the hub.
