Token Rings within the MSH Chassis

The LinkBuilder MSH Token Ring product range currently comprises
MAU modules, RingBuilders and management modules which fit into
an MSH chassis. New modules are under development, so for the latest
information on the MSH token ring product range contact your local
MSH supplier.
MSH token ring products enable network operations personnel to
configure and operate token rings in a flexible manner that suits the
day to day operational needs, without having to move any physical
connections.
The RingBuilder and management module are important elements in
the MSH token ring product range. The RingBuilder organizes selected
MAUs to form a token ring or a part of a token ring, known as a Local
Ring Section. Without the RingBuilder, MAUs will only operate as
stand-alone token ring networks with no management facilities.
