Page 6: Connection Guidelines
Never connect two hubs operating at 100 Mbps with TPE cabling (this violates the IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet specification for Class I hubs). You must use an Intel Cascade Cable. • Never connect a device to the hub at full-duplex. Only the optional Ethernet Module or Fiber Module supports full-duplex. -
Page 7: Example Configurations
Use the optional Intel Express Stackable Hub Ethernet Module (product code EE110EM). • Use a switch capable of both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps operation, such as the Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch (product code ES101TX). • Use a server with two 10/100 adapters installed. - Page 8 A switch with individual ports capable of operating at 10 or 100 Mbps can bridge 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps segments. No configuration of your network operating system is needed. Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch MDI-X MDI-X MDI-X...

Page 9: 100 Mbps-Only Environment
100 Mbps-only environment In the 100-Mbps only environment, you can only connect hubs using an Intel Cascade Cable. You must also use CAT 5 TPE cabling to connect devices (switches, workstations, servers, and so on). The distance between a port and an attached device can’t exceed 100 meters. -

You can’t extend the topology by daisy- chaining hubs together. In the example below, the network diameter is extended to 400 meters by connecting the two hub stacks to an Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch. Each stack is a separate collision domain. - Page 11 Attaching hubs to a switch The illustration below shows two stacks of Express 10/100 Stackable Hubs operating at 10 Mbps attached to Intel Express 10/100 Switch ports also operating at 10 Mbps. Each TPE cable is extended to 100 meters, from workstation to hub and hub to switch. The total network topology is extended to 400 meters.

You’re limited to 100 meters between any two devices (the IEEE specification requires this). 100BASE-FX requirements The optional Fiber Module (Intel product code EE110FX) lets you use multimode fiber optic cable to connect to a switch, bridge, or router up to 160 meters away at half-duplex. With a full-duplex connection, you can connect up to 2 km away. -
Page 15: Straight-Through Vs. Crossover Cables
Determining which cable to use The following guidelines are based on the Express 10/100 Stackable Hub, the Intel 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch, the Intel EtherExpress™ family of network adapters (server or workstation), and the NetportExpress™ family of print servers. These guidelines apply to the majority of hubs and switches and all servers, workstations, or print servers. -

Page 17: Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions I have 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps hubs connected with an Intel Cascade Cable. Can they talk to each other? No. All hubs running at 100 Mbps are in one collision domain (or segment) and all hubs running at 10 Mbps are in a separate collision domain. - Page 18 100BASE-T4 device at 100 Mbps. Can I daisy-chain hubs together with TPE cabling? Only hubs running at 10 Mbps. You must use an Intel Cascade Cable to connect hubs running at 100 Mbps. If I daisy-chain hubs running at 10 Mbps, can I use one network management module to manage all connected hubs? No.
