    TE100-DS24X. Managed Models: TE100-DM16, TE100-DM16X, TE100-DM24, TE100-DM24X. All “X” models include a switch module in Slot 1 of the rear panel. All “M” models are intelligent (that is, “managed”) hubs capable of managing an entire hub stack. The model numbers also indicate how many ports a particular hub has, thus: DM16/DS16 hubs have 16 ports and DM24/ DS24 hubs have 24 ports.

    10Mbps to 100Mbps. The TE100-DM/DS series hubs, available in 16-port and 24-port models, can be stacked with up to five hubs in a stack. A stack of five 24-port hubs gives a total of 120 Ethernet or Fast Ethernet ports.
  • Page 16: Product Features

    1 0Mbps and 100Mbps segments. In a managed hub stack, more than one switch module can be used to provide redundancy if the two modules are both in the primary master hub segment. Other add-in modules are also available, providing switched 100BASE-TX, or switched 100BASE-FX connections.
  • Page 17 An optional slide-in switch module allows bridging b etween 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments. Only one switch module is needed per stack, but managed hub stacks can make use of additional switch modules for redundancy.

    100BASE-FX (see Chapter 4 : Making Connections). Dual-Speed Ethernet Hub Technology Overview Dual-speed Ethernet hubs have been developed to make it simpler to plan networks containing both 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet technologies, especially when network hosts are being gradually migrated to new Fast Ethernet connections.
  • Page 19: 100Base-Tx Technology Overview

    CAD/CAM. To util- ize these technologically advanced applications more efficiently, there is also a growing demand for faster networks that can handle heavy network traffic. Recognizing this need for greater bandwidth and lower latency, a variety of technologies such as FDDI, ATM, and Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) have been adopted by many vendors.

  • Page 21: Network Diameter

    Unlike 10BASE-T hubs which are all functionally identical, Fast Ethernet hubs are divided into two distinct types: Class I and Class II. A Class I hub repeats all incoming signals on one port to the other ports by first translating them to digital signals and then re- translating them back to line signals.
  • Page 22 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide TX to TX. At most, two Class II hubs can exist within the same col- lision domain. As mentioned earlier, stackable Class II hubs can be used to increase the number of available nodes in a collision domain. An entire hub stack counts as a single repeater.

  • Page 27: Installing The Hub

    The site where you install the hub stack may greatly affect its per- formance. When installing, consider the following pointers: Install the hub stack in a fairly cool and dry place. See A p- pendix D, Specifications, for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
  • Page 28: Rack Mounting

    Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the hub for ventilation. For more information see, “Environmental and Physical” on page 84. Install the hub on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight, or in an EIA standard-size equipment rack.

    You can also access the same functions over a TELNET link. Once you have set an IP address for your hub (see the beginning of this chapter), you can use a TELNET program (in a VT-100 compatible terminal mode) to access and control the hub. All of the screens are for the most part identical, whether accessed from the diagnostic port or from TELNET.

    Hub-to-Hub Uplink You can link two hubs or hub stacks to each other using any of the twisted-pair ports or the Up-link port. Linking hubs using ordinary twisted-pair ports requires crossover twisted-pair cables; linking us- ing one ordinary twisted-pair port and the Up-link port requires an ordinary straight-through twisted-pair cable.
