Note: Ethernet specifications limit the number of hubs with twisted pair links in any
communication path to five, as shown in the example. When PC "A" communicates
with PC "B," the communication path goes from hub 4 to hub 2, to hub 1, to hub 3,
and then to hub 5 (or five paths).
The following illustration shows cascading hubs together daisy-chain style and indicates the
setting of the Normal/Uplink push button on each hub.
