Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide ABOUT THIS GUIDE This guide discusses how to install and use the DFE-908 series stackable dual-speed Fast Ethernet/Ethernet Hubs. Conventions References in this manual to the DFE-908 and DFE-908x hubs are fre- quently written simply as “hub” or “hubs” where the text applies to all models. Model numbers are normally used only to differentiate between the two where necessary. Unless differentiated by model number, all information applies to all mod- els. Ov

Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide 1 NTRODUCTION 1 I This chapter introduces the DFE-908 series stackable dual-speed Fast Ethernet/Ethernet Hubs, as well as giving some background information about the technology the hubs use. Product Description The D-Link DFE-908 series stackable dual-speed Fast Ethernet/Ethernet Hubs are designed to allow easy migration and integration between 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, while providing flexibility in cable connections. The DFE-908 series

Class II Fast Ethernet repeater, allowing it to be linked to another Class II Fast Ethernet stack in the same collision domain. On the DFE-908, the 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments are separate and do not intercommunicate. The DFE-908x contains a built-in switch, making it possible to transparently bridge between the 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps seg- ments. Product Features The list below highlights the features and specifications of the DFE-908 series hubs: ♦ Compatible with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T Ethernet

Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide 100BASE-TX Technology Overview 100Mbps Fast Ethernet Introduction Computers today have become increasingly powerful, with the capability to accommodate very sophisticated uses such as multimedia applications, video-conferencing, and CAD/CAM. To utilize these technologically ad- vanced 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 lowe

Topology A Fast Ethernet workgroup is configured in a star topology and is built around a maximum of two repeaters. Each workgroup forms a separate LAN (also known as a segment or collision domain), and these workgroups can be easily interconnected through switches, bridges, or routers to form one LAN large enough to encompass a high-rise building or campus envi- ronment. Recent innovations in LAN hub technology such as stackable hubs, coupled with the decreasing cost of switches, bridges, and

Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs User’s Guide Hub Types 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 translat- ing them to digital signals and then retranslating them back to line signals. These translations are necessary when connecting various network media to the same collision domain, such as when combining two wire-pair 1
