Intel Automated Customer Support ......................20 Overview This guide covers the Intel Express Stackable Hub Ethernet Module (product code EE110EM) and the Intel Express Stackable Hub Fiber Module (product code EE110FX). The Ethernet Module supports both the 10BASE-T Ethernet and 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet standards. The Fiber Module supports the 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet standard.
Connecting 100 Mbps hubs with TPE cable Class I hubs, such as the Intel Express 10/100 Stackable Hub, cannot be directly connected with TPE cable when running at 100 Mbps. However, since the Ethernet Module acts as a switched port on a hub, you can use it to connect to another 100 Mbps hub with TPE cable.
Connecting to a device at full-duplex Express 10/100 Stackable Hubs operate at half-duplex. The only way to connect to a device at full-duplex is with an Ethernet Module. Connecting to a switch at full-duplex Not all device manufacturers implement auto-negotiation of duplex mode.
MDI-X This is an Ethernet Module plugged into a hub running at 10 or 100 Mbps. The module is then connected to a server with an Intel EtherExpress™ PRO/100 LAN Adapter using CAT 5 TPE cable. Use the MDI-X connector on the Ethernet Module.

Change duplex button and LEDs You can determine the Ethernet Module’s duplex configuration and status from the duplex LEDs. Use the Change duplex button to cycle among duplex modes. Attach any Express 10/100 Stackable Hub to the Ethernet Module and the module will automatically negotiate the correct duplex setting (always half-duplex).
