Intel Express 100BASE-TX Switching Hub
Typical Configurations
Configuring the 100 Mbps workgroup
environment
In the 100 Mbps environment, workgroup clients should be connected
to a 100 Mbps hub such as the Intel Express 100BASE-TX Stackable
Hub. All hub stacks should be connected to the Express Switching
Hub. By connecting the hubs to a switching environment, you can
extend Fast Ethernet distance limitations.
