5.1.4 Creating a Daisy-Chain Woric Group
A daisy-chain work group is created by serially connecting several
workstations together on the same ThinWire cable segment. This
cable segment can function as a standalone network or it can be
connected to a larger network.
The benefit of a daisy-chain configuration is that it lowers the
cost of wiring, but there is a risk that someone might improperly
unplug a system and disrupt network connections among systems
on the same ThinWire segment. Note that you must always
terminate both ends of a ThinWire segment.
