ThinLAN Connections
With an HP ThinLAN Transceiver Module for 10Base2 networks installed in
the transceiver slot, you can connect your hub or a stack of hubs to a 10Base-
2 ThinLAN network. The following illustration shows a hub with an HP
ThinLAN Transceiver.
Figure 1-6. ThinLAN Connector
You can connect up to 30 hubs together on a common ThinLAN segment. The
ThinLAN segment can include a computer attached to a hub at one end of the
segment that can communicate with a computer attached to another hub at
the other end of the segment. By using the BNC port on the module, the
maximum repeater hop-count increment through the entire segment is only
two. The following illustration shows you how to connect three hubs together
from one ThinLAN port to another.
