10BASE-T Stackable Hubs

Stackability and Manageability

A stack of Intelligent hubs can be separated up to 100 meters apart and still
keep their manageability. Up to 8 hubs can be daisy-chained together using
UTP or STP cable, with 7 client hubs sharing the master hub's SNMP
management agent, to provide a connectivity solution for departmental
Ethernet networks ranging up to 192 twisted-pair nodes. Bandwidth can be
substantially increased using micro-segmentation and LAN switching
technologies.

Innovative Display

Intelligent Series hubs are equipped with a large, clear display that shows an
extensive array of information at a glance, including link/receive and
partitioning status, bandwidth utilization, collision ratio, runt occurrences,
and data transmission errors.

Security

The Intelligent Series supports intrusion control. Intrusion Control prevents
unauthorized individuals from accessing the network. Through the network
management software, Ethernet addresses that represent authorized users can
be assigned to each hub port. If a packet is received from a port that contains
a source address from other than the authorized user, the port is disabled and
a notification is sent to the network manager.
