Overview
The
ET100A
Network Bridge is a high performance, remote,
self ‐ learning Ethernet bridge. Its compact size and low cost make it ideal
for cost ‐ sensitive bridging applications, or as a LAN extender or segmenter
over bit stream type infrastructures. Several selectable synchronous data
interfaces, including V.35, RS ‐ 530, RS ‐ 449, X.21, and RS ‐ 232, make this
Ethernet Bridge's connection between 10Base ‐ T and 100Base ‐ TX LAN and
various SYNC data port interfaces convenient.
